I need to replace my track-pump - which one does the panel recommend?

Quality and performance more important than price.

The Topeak Joe Blow is the third track pump I've bought, and so far best - for a reasonable price.

+1 for Joe Blow. Literally just bought a Sport and it's a fantastic bit of kit, easily got to 115.

(First post so be nice ;))

i used to have a joe blow and couldn't really fault it. I've just replaced it with a
SKS rekompressor and really am amazed at the new pump. its the big daddy of track pumps, and fully rebuildable!

I have a cheapish 'Giro'. I think its an unknown brand but it works fine. A while ago the seal in the locking head stopped working so I replaced it with a brass non-locking head by Silka for £6. Works great. No need to buy a new pump.

I've had a Silke for years - about 15. Replaced the head with a Blackburn this year, for which you can get service kits for about £4 - it's been excellent.

I've fancied one of those for ages, but unfortunately (or fortunately) my EBC Revolution track pump is still going strong after 4 years. When it finally dies the SKS is at the top of the list.

Thanks for the Joe Blow recommendations. Got the Sport, and am very impressed by it. Feels really well-made, and works beautifully.
