Yup.

I tried the CO2 once and completely effed it up. Since then, I've stuck to the pump.

Someone gave me this one as a gift and it works just fine. You have to pump pretty furiously and long, but it will go to 80 PSI in pretty short order. Not sure I believe the 160 psi number, though. Maybe Popeye can do that.

My other bikes have the cheapo Performance Hurricane pump.

That works dandy.
