Reply With QuoteI have a smallish air pump that has a pressure gauge on it. It's a "Genuine Innovations" one and works fine for me.

Are there any good pumps that are small, compact, and light but can tell you what air pressure your tire has reached? Or is that asking too much?

have I ever over inflated with the cartridge?
Yes and it blew out the tire and shredded the tube. Thank goodness I also carry a spare tube, a patch kit. and extra cartridge. So on that memorable training ride where I held up the group for total of about 40 minutes... I managed to get a flat, blow out a tire, and a second flat. Had to borrow someone elses cartridge. When it was inflated after the first flat, I was going, "I think the tire feels bit too hard...?" One of the guys who came by assured me it was okay and it's supposed to be rock hard. no kiddin' buckwheat cause it blew out 4 or 5 miles down the road in a pace line. Nobody hit the brake though we freaked maybe it was just me and everyone else was fine.
