Bike Pump Update – Topeak Road Morph with Gauge

See Hot Buy Alert – 9/28/2006

The pump saga continues. I am back to the Topeak Road Morph. This is an acceptable pump that has a few issues.

Pros:

- Neat design, fold-out handle and foot

- Hose from pump to head (a big plus), provides a comfortable and efficient pumping position while reducing the chance of stem damage

- Built-in Pressure Gauge

- Sturdy

- Small and light

Cons:

- Over 60 strokes to pump to 100 PSI

- Gauge is not very accurate, mine reads 10 PSI low

- Pump effort a little high when you get above 60 PSI

- Doesn’t mount to frame very well, wobbles while riding
