Deege.......Most serious pumps will do the job-- some easier and longer lasting than others. My best experience has always been the Zefal HPX. Its been replaced by see the address below which I'm told is at least as good-- and it has a so-cool universal (shraeder/presta) pump head:

25 smackers at Nashbar. My last Zefal lasted for 7 years and California roads are trashed to the max and I get a lot of flats because I ride sloppy. Frequently smacking Rottweilers on the snoot may significantly shorten pump life.

***I sometimes carry a CO2 cartridge with me...they're a "real gas" to use but, retro-phart that I am, always have my Zefal with me, too.
