Hey guys,

So… I’ve been using a small electric pump for my bikes and e-scooters over the last few years.

They are nice, but really aren’t designed to be used as often as I do.

I’m a fan of low-tech gear, so I’m looking for a good quality floor pump that will last the next 20+ years. Obviously, it needs to be serviceable and have easily replaceable parts. And it needs to be accurate, for sure. LOL

I’m reading reviews from Wirecutter and various cycling sites, and they are all over the place with recommendations. I think a lot of their choices are driven by affiliate links, so there’s that.

Does this unicorn exist?

    I like park tool products. They always last for me. I’ve never bought their floor pump because i just have a cheap no-name one that won’t die but I definitely want one for my next floor pump.

    Topeak is another good brand that I like but again I don’t have a floor pump of theirs just a frame pump. I’ve read a bunch of rave reviews for their floor pump and the guys at GMBN swear by them.

      I’m a Park Tool fan and own quite a few of their bike tools, but I’m not a fan of their chuck style (that lever-type chuck). It does look like they sell just about every replacement part for their home mechanic floor pump, so I’ll keep them in mind!
