After a long search, I feel like I finally have a really good road pump. Lezyne makes amazing pumps. I have a version of this pump and I love it. What I like the most about it is that there is a flexible hose the comes out of the center of the pump and screws onto your valve so that when you're at the side of the road, pumping like crazy, no matter how much you wiggle the valve connection holds and doesn't leak air. Also the pumps get up to 100 psi pretty easily. It's easily small enough to fit in a jersey pocket. I have one that is small enought to fit into my seat bag.

I have the Lezyne road drive on my bottle cage. I really appreciate the flexible hose!

Another vote for the Lezyne. It even has a gauge on the flexible hose. I have had five flats since I got down to Texas and the pump did its job. Originally Posted by winddance

I have a "Lezyne Alloy Drive" pump, used it once when I first bought it, July of this year, then it shook apart while on my bike. Went to use it today when fixing a flat, and poof, it's not working, came apart in my hands. The other day on a ride something on the bike started rattling, stopped, thinking it was my front tire, but discovered it was the pump, couldn't figure out what was up, it was still in the mount, hadn't been bumped or anything. So pissed.

Hey, wanted to add an update. I e-mailed the Lezyne company, they e-mailed back almost immediatly with a solution to the problem. Something vibrated loose, and they instructed on how to get it screwed in again. Bingo, it worked. Thank goodness, wasn't looking forward to having to find another pump. I put a little gorilla tape on the problem area so it won't unscrew anymore.
