Topeak JoeBlow Mountain Track Pump


SO GOOD… 
With the highest air volume here, the Topeak took a mere 13 strokes to reach 30psi and the double-sided head means no faffing. The textured, rubberised handle offers loads of grip and is comfy to boot. The gauge stops at 75psi, has clear numbers and a bright yellow arrow. It’s the cheapest pump on test too.

NO GOOD… 
With its plastic parts, the JoeBlow doesn’t feel as high quality as some of its all-metal rivals, though it’s still very well put together. The small footprint reduces stability, the hose is on the short side and the stroke is pretty stiff.

13 strokes to 30psi

PRICE: 56$
