Why would someone use a air compressor to get the tire up then top it off with a pump? Why not simply use a Prestacycle Prestaflator with a compressor capable of reaching 170 psi then add a settable auto shutoff? I sometimes use my air compressor, but mostly I use a cheap Zefal floor pump I got for $18 at Walmart...but it's about 3 years old and I think it may be leaking a bit but I haven't looked at it to see what's going on, but I may have to get another better pump next spring. If I do get another pump I may get the Lezyne since their mini pumps are so good, unless someone has had issues with them.
