I have that pump, I can't fault it, the locking bit is very good, my mate has a slightly different one and his pops off at high psi. Had it for about 10 months now.

Thanks guys. Your comments go some way to confirming my concern that I'm doing something wrong. I suspect I am not cycling enough at the moment, as I have been running instead. I will have to remedy that once I recover from the injury I picked up today falling off my bike.
Was that with Beeston RC? How was it? What was the average speed, did you Strava it?

they do different versions with cheaper/dearer materials
Beeston CC. I've been out with both clubs now so think I will have to join them both soon.
This is the whole ride so includes cycling to the meeting point and home at the end.

ahhhhhh :| so i bought a hybrid all good etc, got it delivered built it up and all is fine - haven't had a chance to ride it yet.
come today - decathlon sends me an email "hey your order has been dispatched"
now as i have said they returned the money back to my bank, no emails no calls nothing and i bought another bike.
i have tried to register on their site but they wouldn't send a confirmation email and now they have dispatched the bike!
obviously the triban 3 is a better bike out of the two and suits my needs better! but what do i do with the hybrid ?!
or do i just refuse the delivery and get my money back?!
what would you lot do?

i would! but i can't afford to! sell brand new hybrid(Hopefully get what i paid for it?) and keep triban 3 or refuse delivery of the triban 3

Did you buy the hybrid online? Return it under the distance selling regulations and take the Triban 3 from Decathlon.
yup, but its out of the box and all built? will they take it back?
guess returning it will be a problem too as the box is HUGE and 18kg+
I believe they have to take it back. As far as returning it goes... I'm not sure how you'd do that, but it depends on the cost compared to the benefit of getting a better bike!
i guess you're right, there's some paint damage too so its another reason why i would want to return it.
Ill email them and see what they say.
Thanks
