BlackburnGrid 1 Floor Pump(Return to Product Page)

The headline says it all - the nozzle fell of my Presta valve about four times while trying to inflate. This never happened with other pumps. Returned the unit right away. Kudos to WesternBikeWorks for making the return easy.

Great pump for the price. Nothing super flashy or special, but gets the job done. Cylinder is narrow for easily getting to higher pressure without feeling like you're going to break the handle, but seems shorter than some other high psi pumps I've tried so it requires a few more pumps to get the amount of air you need. Not a huge deal, though. The base is sturdy but I feel could be a bit larger to help with stability. And it would be nice if the hose was longer as well. The chuck is pretty cool, it's nice having a single connection point for both presta and Schrader valves without having to swap anything, though I sometimes have to reseat the chuck on a valve a couple times to get it to work right if the last valve I used it on was different than what I'm currently connecting to. So a few things that could be improved, but no deal breakers, and very solid for the price.

I wanted a spare pump to keep in my car. This was very inexpensive and works fine.
