Track pump for presta valves (possible also schraeder)

[Jono]

What's a decent (but reasonably priced) track pump?

I've got a Joe Blow one that I got a few years ago for about £20 works perfectly for both valves and comes with a load of adaptors for different bits and bobs.

I have the Blackburn Air Tower 2, which I picked up on ebay a whole back. I think I paid £22 for it, and I can currently see it on there for £25. Googling shows it at Amazon for £24. It's a good solid pump and it's worked fine for me for a good few months now, and it's got good press from my friends who have used it. It's got a head that is supposed to be compatible with both Presta and Schrader without having multiple holes or adapters, but so far I've only used it for Presta. It goes up to 140psi which should be plenty for most purposes. It's fully re-buildable, assuming you can find the necessary spare parts somewhere.

Old, brief Bikeradar review.

Joe Blow Sports II is often rated as one of the best for the money. I've got one and it's faultless.

I have the Topeak Joe Blow turbo Pump, it's perfect IMO.
The head will fit both types of valve without changing anything.

We've got a load of Joe Blows at work but I have to say I find them hard work and I have to really lean on them compared to my one at home. Quality-wise, they are a sturdy well made pump though, my one is a bit flimsy and the both in one Presta/Schrader fitting broke quite quickly and it'll now only work on Presta valves. The Joe Blow has the two fittings on opposite sides of the head so there's no universal fitting to fail.
