I used to use the venerable Silca frame-fit pump, one was painted to match a custom frame -- beautiful. But, it was work getting air in tires with those things, and I've had two just blow up in my hands. I've also used Zefal. Works fine. Lately, I've been using two Specialized PVO pumps. I love them. They don't do anything but pump. No hoses, gauges, shraeder adapters, nothing. There are even a few patches hiding behind a cap on the handle. I can get tires to 100 psi with both the compact and full size models. My next pump:
the Quicker Pro Pump (http://www.velo-orange.com/quickerpropump.html). If it does half of what the folks at Velo Orange say it does, it'll be some of the best cash I ever spent. Velo Orange has never steered me wrong, either.
