    I got the sprint - same as blorg

    I expected it to be similar in size to the sport but it's a good 6 inches taller. Can't wait to get it home.

    My 8 year old argos one only works well for Schrader valves so needed something for the presta

    I got the Joe Blow Sprint as I wanted the top-mount gauge. Wiggle are very expensive on those pumps, I got mine from CRC. I presume if it is taller than the Sport it also pumps faster (it is certainly a lot faster than my previous track pump, which I now leave in work.)

    I bought a BBB track pump in the belfield bike shop for €25. Pumps my tires up over 100 PSI with ease, no problems with the locking mechanism regarding leakage. It doesnt exactly look amazing, but for the price I think its pretty good.

    I got a Joeblow a couple of weeks back from Wiggle, takes about 15 seconds to get them fully pumped with no difficulty. Definitely should've invested before now!

    @Blorg - the Ultremo tyres say to pump from 95-145 psi (as far as I can remember...). 145 seems a bit high doesn't it?

    145 would be a bit high, yes, I would not go beyond 110. The ride would get very harsh with no real benefit.
