I'll lead of with my carbon fiber, aerodynamic floor pump.
Oh yea, it's plenty fast, and extremely light weight. Throwing in the aero features and you just can't miss.
This might even be worse.
Everyone needs a carbon fiber, deap dish, light weight, aerodynamic - tubular stretching rim. If you don't have dimples on your stretching rim, you'll never know how much better it can be! Zipp no less. Cost me less than $500 too. Oh yea!
Happy Friday

I see that the pump has reverse dimples on the feet. How does that affect the aerodynamics ?

LOL, because it's so close to the ground, ground effect aerodynamics take over and it creates a little bit of suction to reduce overall drag. It's worth over 3 negative watts in a typical 40k TT.

Hula Zipp hoops are great for rainy day exercise. Help with the balance and coordination as well.

Actually, the pump is awesome. Has two pressure zones, low for big volume an low psi <60, and the the high pressure red stage that makes it easy to pump up to >180 psi.
