Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Affordable Matte Black Mini Pump

During the search for a new mini pump, I came across this: https://www.cannondale.com/2012/gear/...ini-pump-21585

I looked for reviews and couldn't find any, and only saw it on two to three online bike stores. However, I'm interested in it because it's matte black.

I recently purchased a 2012 CAAD10-1, and I want to keep the matte black consistent on the frame, so I'm installing matte black bottle cages along with a potential matte black frame pump (i don't like the feeling of a pump in jersey pockets) The Cannondale Airspeed Nitro is nice because it's matte black and it's cannondale so it also keeps the brand consistent, but I have no idea if the pump can be mounted on the frame.

However, I'm open to suggestions...it should be matte black, able to pump at least 100psi, and mounted on the frame, I prefer less than $35, and hopefully isn't too heavy.

So the main points:
Who has experience with the Cannondale Airspeed pumps and...
Please suggest an affordable matte black frame pump.

Thanks Everyone.

I'm pretty sure I saw the one linked to in the second post today at my LBS. I'd never really looked at the mini pumps before, but I was shocked how small this one was.

Maybe you saw the Air Stik SL. It's the smallest one, and weighs in at 59 grams. That's what I use on my matte black bike, altho unfortunately for the OP the pump is most certainly not matte black.

I have this:

https://www.wiggle.co.uk/lezyne-hp-drive-abs-pump/

Get the Small in Black. It's 6 inches and can be kept in the back pocket (I use a neoprene pencil case which carries all my essentials + pump). The only non Black part is near the cover as seen on the picture.
