Suggestions on pump to mount on frame
 

Looking for a small pump to mount on my frame.

What do you suggest? Post links please!

gross, please don't.

Fashion police always give you a hard time :)

I am a huge fan of the Lezyne Road Drive Mini Pump. It comes with one adapter that you can mount to the bottle holder bolts. I put the mount on my commuter (I don't wear always a jersey when commuting). When riding my other bikes, depending on how long the ride is going to be, I move the mount or just put the pump in my middle jersey pocket. I get a little worried it might fall out of my pocket but hasn't happened yet.

This is something you can do without a new thread. Search google or bikeforums. (I think you know that already, but just in case, give a man a fish/teach a man to fish)

I'm a newbie, but I searched for user reviews when looking for a frame pump. Hell, I browsed on BF and Sheldon Brown for weeks before even posting on here. I ended up with the Topeak Road Morph G, which I used a few times for regular air maintenance and I'm very satisfied with it so far.

Search it on amazon, google or BF for reviews.

Ditto on the Lezyne.

Here is a picture of mine, mounted on my road bike:

A big PLUS 1. I have several pumps, including the Lezyne Road Drive large, I got the larger size (they come in medium and large but the larger size is easier to pump), and here's what I've learned....don't waste your money on the Lezyne! The Topeak Road Morph G comes with a external hose instead of internal like the Lezyne so the Lezyne wins on style points. The Lezyne also wins the war of the weight. But the Topeak comes with a fold out foot peg and a fold out handle making it way easier to inflate tires with then the Lezyne, so the Topeak wins in functionality, which it me is more important.

The Topeak Road Morph G (G stands for guage) comes with a PSI gauge to help you get to the right pressure, the Lezyne does not unless you want to spend an additional $22 to get the optional gauge hose. Why Lezyne didn't just forego the regular hose for the gauge hose I don't know. BUT, Topeak isn't without their quirk either, you have to pay an additional $5 to get a pump clamp that will allow you to mount your pump on the side of a water bottle cage, the factory clamp just straps the pump around the frame. Why the Topeak didn't provide a water bottle cage mount is beyond me.

Both the Lezyne and the Topeak gauge are accurate enough, they'll get you to within 5 pounds of your actual weight, but neither was superior over the other in terms of accuracy.

The Topeak will easily and effortlessly get you up to 115psi and beyond probably has high as 135 but I doubt it's rated 160 could be reached, I never go past 105, but it can. The Lezyne will get you to 115 also but it takes more work, then after that it takes quite a bit of effort to get to 135 and I doubt it will reach 150 not alone 160.

The Lezyne cost around $40 plus $22 for the gauge hose so you could be out $62. The Topeak will cost $28 plus $5 for the bottle cage mount for a total of $33.

Thanks for all the info guys!

I am going to order the Topeak Road Morph G! I am going to buy it on Performance Bike, but they have them in stock until 10/19. Does this come with a mount though or do I have to buy that separate?

My Road Morph G didn't come with a mount, but I bought one separately for about $4.00 that uses the bottle mount braze-ons on my road bike.

I rock the Road Morph G. Even though I don't have it mounted, I carry it around in a bag and I love the thing.

That's what I'm going to do!

Going to order it later today!

A big fat +1 on my end for the road morph G. PSI's in the 100's are reached with ease, plus it's rebuildable. Here's a tip, when you need to lube it, do not use grease, a simple squirt of wax based chain lube inside the canister body will do the trick (you don't even need special tools to open it, just use the threads on the pump handle to be level and then catch the treads on the mainbody and twist to loosen and vice versa) for servicing.

Not sure if it's cheaper here but there's free UPS ground shipping if you get it from here; plus it's on stock.

+1 on the Road Morph G, love that pump!

Just personal preference, but a hand pump/CO2 combo is where it is at. They make them down to about 7" in length, so you can keep it in a seat bag/handlebar bag/whatever... I keep mine in a quick release handlebar bag so I don't like having to worry about my pump getting jacked every time I leave my bike locked up.

A couple of months ago I was riding along and stumbled upon a Road Morph G on the side of the road in pretty good condition.

I was all like:

I'm all about that when I find used bottles, tubes, and condoms

Ditto.

I just discovered today experimenting with a couple of pump water cage mounts that my old SKS Puro (a junky pump, don't ever buy) mount works great on the Topeak! One should be able to buy the mount from SKS

I got my Topeak RM G from Amazon, it came with a mount and screws that fit into my Raleigh One Way slots for cage mounts. Of course, if you don't have holes drilled for cages/mounts, what's the point.

I didn't pay anything extra, it just came with it, worked nicely.

I can't stop laughing

What mount are you using and where did you get it?
