I bought this little guy back in SA for my first trip and used it plenty since. I like the fact that I can service it myself so it stands to reason that it will last me a while. It does work hard to get the wheel harder for road riding.

What pumps do you guys take with you on trips and what worked for you / can you recommend.

Just interested.

I use this one:

Works well for me and the gauge is very accurate.

I'm a Cycle Pump Man ... no real reason other than it had been recommended by others and there was a local distributor

Separate pressure gauge but hopefully it has better accuracy and more on the rugged side.

Heavy duty carry bag ... but pump size means it has to be carried in the rear rack bag.

+1 for the Airman Sparrow and I also have a Slime pump

The Slime package is a bit sleeker and did very well on a six week trip to Mongolia where it was used many times. Quick to inflate and reasonably rugged in construction.
