I use both the Carbon Road Drive and Road Drive models in Medium, one with the optional Pen Gauge hose for pressure reading.
They pump effectively, efficiently, and are lightweight.
The only other pump I use is the classic Zefal HpX framefit. I keep it on my winter bike, because the extra olume lets me get back under way as quicky as possible.
Weather and location are a big factor in which pump to choose, as are what time in the day you ride.
When you actually have to fix a flat, a pump like that micro drive hp would work wonders. Weight could bother some.
I bought a Topek something rocket HP for the road, and a Lezyne something HV for mountain. I like the Topek a little better.
Honestly, CO2 isn't a bad choice if you don't flat too much, or if a few dollars a year aren't too expensive for you and you want to get back ASAP.
