I've got a frame pump on my gravel bike, because:
  1. I already had the pump (a Silca) from a vintage touring bike.
  2. The pump has a gen-u-ine Campagnolo metal pump head that will probably outlast the bike. (It outlasted the last bike it was on.)
  3. Weight isn't particularly important on that bike.
  4. The pump is a perfect fit for the frame, so why not use it?
Other than that, I wouldn't buy a new frame pump today.

My Dahon folder has a Postpump, built into the seatpost.
