Should I buy Joe Blow Ultra Sport 2?
Hi,i have in plan to buy a Joe Blow Ultra Sport 2 floor pump,but don't know on how durable,trustworthy and precise it is?

My 7 dollar Zefal from Walmart still works well. I think I got it circa 2010. I did put a new chuck and hose on it five years ago for about another 4 dollars. It probably only gets used four to six times a week between me and my son. So if you ride more, you might need something more quality. <sarcasm>

It's not like selecting a spouse. Buy it from somewhere that accepts returns if it doesn't suit you.

I'm still using my Joe Blow after around 15 years. It's a quality pump.

I have a joeblow booster pump and love it. I use the boost about 2x/year and its a normal pump the rest of the time. Well constructed, good materials, and the pivoting hose is nice.
You can pay less and get just as good. You can pay more and get worse.

I have 2 Joe Blow Sport pumps, one at home and one at my shop. I have had them for a few years and they are both great and easy to use. I got them from REI when they have their 20% off sale. I think I ended up paying around $40 each. Great purchase and still working like new! Joe joesvintageroadbikes.wordpress

My Joe Blow is probably 18 years old now. The handle up top is starting to split and break. And my nozzle or whatever they called it had to be replaced. Several years ago. Joe Blow sent it to me for free.
