I've only used the Lezyne HV version.
I concur that the pulling out the presto valves can be a PITA.

I'd recommend the non gauge version.

I bought my pump based on the, at the time, easy ability to source and purchase parts for it.

Most of the online bike part stores I use i.e. Wiggle, Bike24, Chainreaction cycles etc., sold the pumps and parts around the time I initially bought the pump.

A year and a half down the track, the pump has started leaking and examination showed the gauge had developed a crack.

Given that the pump is permanently attached to my bike 24/7, I don't believe it is impact damage, but rather sun UV damage.

Of course I haven't been able now to source another gauge and so will have to buy another pump.

I will be buying the same Lezyne pump but this time, I'll be getting the non gauge version, as apart from the gauge, which started being wildly inaccurate very early on in the peace, and its apparent lack of easy availability, the pump over all has proved to be a good one.
