LezyneGrip Drive HP Hand Pump(Return to Product Page)

This is a nice pump, but it has a flaw that I think takes it out of 5-star territory. The problem is that you have to thread the hose onto the valve, and there is no swivel, so the entire pump must rotate while you are doing this. The alternative is to thread the hose onto the valve first, and then screw the pump onto the hose, but this is not what the instructions say. Once attached, it takes 100 strokes to put 60psi in a 25mm tire, and those last strokes are pretty high resistance. This is common with mini-pumps, and having the hose makes it a LOT better than pumps where you are actually stressing the valve when you get into the high-force stage. I consider 60psi in a 25mm tire to be an absolute last resort amount of pressure, but it can get you home, or to a real pump.

It is small, light, and well-made. But I haven't found the ideal pump yet. And find them I do. This is the first mini-pump I have bought, and I have 4 -- all found by the side of the road.

Yeah I know'.. it doesn't really get to 120 psi.

But it'll get you home, very lightweight, nicely designed.

Love it

Small package, well made,works well. Only con- takes a lot of pumps to inflate tire.

The Lezyne HP is very functional and conveniently sized. I have one for each of my bike packs.
