The Zefal HPX is still being made. Rivendell sells it and you can probably get it off Amazon as well. Might be possible for someone to come up with a short hose adapter to put on a current frame pump. Perhaps modified from a floor pump replacement hose.
Bingo! We have a winner folks!
Why is this such a hard concept? I think I want to start R&D on this!
I like screw on presta nozzles and a guage can even be centrally mounted. A frame pump with extra hose in the bag. Brilliant!
