I'm looking for a long lasting track pump sans the planned obsolescence(unreplacable parts and such)
Also I'd like to have a pump that pumps up to 10-11 ish bar without effort,even if it takes more strokes.

I got a Lezyne as a replacement when the Joe Blow Pro started leaking for no reason, seems like a nice sturdy pump and 11 bar is no problem.

Pump in pic is good quality, occasionally had issues with certain presta valves allowing the pressure guage to leak. The metal footplate is pretty rough on the edges, easy to scratch paint if you're not careful.

Obvious choice is Silca Pista if you are looking to buy the floor pump that will outlive you.

Honestly, pic related is a great pump. We have one in the shop I work at, and it's holding up incredibly well, we've had it for a year and a half now, being used in shop conditions, and it's still perfect. Only dislike is that the pressure gauge is vague and hard to read.

how do you use the retarded lock thing that needs too much force to open and close and leaks ~3 bar before i manage to get it on&off the valve? the ones that gas stations have are much better than these and dont even hurt fingers when filling to high pressures.

What pump?
What kind of valve
Where is the position of the valve when topping it off?

I keep a Blackburn Air Tower II at work, Beto at home... both have worked very well so far.

Anyone have experience with either? Not that I really care much... bought them because they were what was in front of my face at the LBS. They work.

My track record is
>SKS airworx (got a leak after it fell down,partially because the manometer is so far up and it broke the manometer/airhose connection)
>Blackburn airtower II(hose ruptured after inflating a friends 23mm road bike to 8 bar)
>Blackburn airtower I(have had it for years now,but the "blowback?" valve is working haphazardly,some of times,resulting in a light-speed handle speeding @ your face ...sometimes.)
>SKS airkompressor 12.0 (Simple,easy usage,large displacement of air per stroke,pumps up to 11 bar effortlessly[not that I use that kind of pressure])
>Topeak Joeblow sport(needlessly difficicult pump head,good quality and reliability,rather difficult to lubricate the piston head).

Joe Blow is nice and affordable. I've had mine for ~10 years. One air hose replacement. The gauge isn't accurate, but I don't expect it to be.

Why dont you expect it to be accurate.
And how far would you say its off?

I have one of these, and its been going strong for 6-7 years now, and I've never noticed any significant inaccuracy with the gauge.

can't recommend rennkompressor highly enough.

EXCEPT- the EVA head is useless on schrader valves. if you will every do anything but presta valves, you need the multivalve head

Need to get a mini pump not for high pressure tires but fat tires 30 psi tops any recommendations or will any one do as it will be used for low pressure application?

Anything will work, but some will take a long time to pump up. Zefal and a few others do a high volume version, look into those.
Ps. Expect the gauge to be useless at low pressures.

Because it's a cheap pump and gets banged around quite often. I suppose it's within 10 psi. I'd use something like an Accu-gage if I wanted to get more specific. But I usually just go by feel and not by some specific number.

the pump maker does not matter if it you need lots of force to open or close it on the valve. it has to come of easily like those at gas stations do to not hurt fingers.

Weird, my Lezyne floor pump stopped working after a few months, and I've never been able to figure out just what broke. Someday I'll tear it apart to find out. The Joe Blow that I've had for like 10 years has had one little air leak problem that was easily fixed.
