Are They Still Made?
 
Peg mount tire pumps.
Does anyone still make them?
I cannot find any new ones online.
I would prefer new, since a rebuild kit for a vintage one would probably be rarer than hens teeth, and more costly than a round trip to Mars.

The Topeak Masterblaster has a hole for the peg:

I put a Blackburn between the pegs on my UO-8 -- works like a champ.

I have frame fit Zefal HP-X on the Bianchi and the 1959 Capo (no pegs) and a Zefal HP-X on the Sieger (pump pegs like those of the UO-8). The mountain bike has a Mt. Zefal pump (peg on top, against left chainstay on bottom, fits behind the seat tube).

Actually that was only the first of the answers to that question. The second was "yes" and the third provided the most clarity: "It's a shallow depression, but it's enough to hold the pump under the top tube if you've got a pump peg behind the head tube. That's the way I carry mine. It rattles a bit on chip-seal roads, but it's never fallen off. It could fall off if you knock your knee into the pump for any reason, but it's the back (bottom) of the pump that goes first."

Sounds like you can get it to work with a peg of the type mentioned. I was interested to know that since that is the type my Soma G.R. has.

Topeak Road MasterBlaster Pump
 
I second the Topeak Road MasterBlaster Pump recommendation. Ordered mine from Nashbar last fall. Fits fine.

Actually they do. I have 3 of them and use them all the time.

Zefal HPX works fine with a peg. I've used one with the headtube peg, a zefal plastic strap peg (both mounted horizontally on the top tube and vertically behind the seat tube, as well as with an old AFA umbrella clamp.

If you're looking to kit out an older bike with two pegs, Pashley sells this French model:

Can't find them online, perhaps you could get one from a Pashley dealer, if that's what you're looking for.

Sunlight makes an old fashioned peg pump with the small hose. It costs $10 with free shipping on epay.

Peter Weigle seems to have either a stash or a source for peg-mounted pumps. I've got photos from last year's Classic Rendezvous gathering that show a couple of them....

From one of Peter's recent builds:

and the lower portion of the pump...

and a picture of a 650B Raleigh by Weigle with peg mounted pump....
https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7320/2...131911_z_d.jpg


These don't seem to match the pumps mentioned so far. Perhaps Peter Weigle could be contacted and asked where he gets them?

Yes it does.

Well that's the last time I believe an answered question. The presence of a hole (or intentional depression) is pretty basic stuff.


...Or maybe I just need to dig deeper in the answers section rather than assuming said answers are moderated and/or confirmed correct. :)

Not that it has much to do with anything- but I finally found a chrome Silca. It looks really sharp.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. If you're saying that the Zefal doesn't have a hole for the pump peg, you don't know what you're talking about. Every one that I've owned has a place for the peg.

Just saying I responded based on the Q&A section on the product page, which wasn't a great idea. That answer was wrong, as has been pointed out several times. Apologies. :o

I'm the one that needs to apologize. I misunderstood your reply.
