Blackburn Airstik. It's small and a bit sh*tty. I find it hard to get adequate pressure with it though it's supposed to go to 120 psi.

x34232425 on the mini morph. Love not having to fight with it against the wheel.
|
theres no co2 inflator with a gauge right, not that it would be all that hard to just keep a tire gauge with it, just thought id ask.

yea, we had someone bust out a crank brothers on a group ride. Totally let us down. The dual head leaked like crazy, and you still had to fight with it on the wheel.
Some girl busted out her road morph, pumped dude's wheel to 120 psi, in effect melting my heart. |

Basically its the best mini pump in existance.. no argument. |
Do you use Presta valves? If so, I find that a pump with a hose works the best. I use a Topeak Morph Mountain Masturbater... uh... Masterblaster. It was the best one I could find at my LBS, and replaced a Specialized air-tool Dual. I like the option of being able to pump both Presta and Schrader valves, and the hose helps prevent breaking off one's Presta valve stems. The foot-thingy is nice, too.

I've got one of those CO2 inflator things in my seat bag. Plus, I buy the CO2 cartridges in bulk from the sports/hunting section at Walmart.

I've got these on all three bikes. Gets to 120psi with no troubles. I once pumped my wife's BMW tire with a bicycle pump; 35 pumps = one pound of air; 25 pounds to fill up the tire. Great exercise for the forearms.

Yeah I have a blackburn in my bag, don't like it at all so i'd stay away from that.
