They actually both are pretty good pumps. The Lezyne looks more at home on a road bike, and is lighter. The Topeak is a better design for ergonomics since you can press it against the ground. It even has a little fold-out foot rest, which is actually useless if you're wearing bike cleats. But even so, the design is great if you get a lot of flats. But the Topeak is kind of big, would never do in a pocket, and is a little too utilitarian looking for a svelte road bike.
I have the Mini Morph and always make use of the foot stand. It only has to hold the shaft of the pump to the ground on the upstroke, and let your bodyweight do the work on the downstroke. It's the least work of any mini-pump I've owned.
