  • I fell out of love with my Blackburn Air Stik when the postman brought this:

    It's a 16cm-long Air Stik SL, also made by Blackburn. The whole pump fits inside a jersey pocket, so there's no chance of it jumping out when you go over a bump. 15 quid from eBay, 20 from most shops. You can inflate a tyre from empty to rideable in jig time - maybe no' up to 120psi, right enough, but certainly hard enough that it doesn't feel spongy. Presta only. Also available in white.

    I've got a spare virtually unused one of these (with frame mount). Brought it as an emergency pump but my brother then brought me a Lezyne Pressure Drive which I marginally prefer, it's not that it's a better pump, just I find it easier to handle a slightly bigger pump. Just my personal preference :) I want one of Lezyne's pen gauges to go with the Pressure Drive, so would happily trade my Air Stik SL for one if anyone's interested. Or make me an offer.
