The Blackburn frame pump (FP-1) is an excellent standard-style frame pump. I used one for several years on my road bike that has 100+psi tires. It has a head that engages positively on the tire valve and pumps to 100+ psi (although it takes a good effort). The handle rotates to a "T" position for better leverage while pumping. It will mount to a pump peg. You'll have to get the right size for your particular frame for the proper compression-type fit. I recommend you also gett a pump strap for added security.

There are a few negatives. The head is made of rubber-coated plastic and can break if the pump falls off while riding (I know from experience). Without a pump strap you may get some annoying rattling. Finally, though it is a really good pump, you can pump to higher pressures with less effort using a Lezyne Nicro Floor Drive or a Topeak RoadMorph (I have those, too).

One of the best things about the Blackburn Frame Pump is actually Blackburn's customer service. It is awesome. Blackburn is owned by Bell Sports (they make Bell and Giro helmets). If your pump has a problem (as mine did) they will make it right. They FP-1 has a lifetime warranty. Mine fell off the bike at 25+mph and cracked at the pump head (my fault). I explained this to the customer service lady - and she sent me a new head assembly free of charge!

If you must have a traditional frame pump, the FP-1 is the best I've used (the Zefal HPX is good, too, but lacks the rotating handle and is all plastic construction - I have two). BUT if you are open to other alternatives, I'd suggest the Lezyne Road or Micro Floor Drives - they are the slickest best-made pumps I've ever used. The Topeak RoadMorph (or MountainMorph) is a cheaper version with plastic construction, a shorter hose, and fiddly chuck - but they're OK, too. Any of these will pump to high pressure with less effort.

Hope this helps. Let us know what you decide to get.
