Cannondale Airport Plus Track Pump


SO GOOD…
The Airport Plus’s footprint is large, giving a solid, stable base for pumping. The handle may be one of the narrowest here but its teardrop shape fits comfortably into your palms.

NO GOOD…
Swapping between Presta and Schrader valves means fiddling with rubber grommets. It’s not difficult, but ‘smart’ heads are more convenient. Airflow isn’t as good as some despite a stiff stroke, and the hose is one of the shortest on test. The numbers on the gauge – which goes up to 160psi – are small and closely packed. It’s not the cheapest pump on test but the finish and feel aren’t as good as the rest.

25 strokes to 30psi

PRICE: 60$
