We have the Joe Blow Sport and I like it a lot. We also have a Specialized (comp I think), I find the Joe Blow is easier for me to pump. Sometimes on the Specialized I feel like I have to put my whole body into pumping the tires. The one thing I don't like about the Joe Blow is on some valves it seems like I have to take it off and put in on a few times. I think it is has more to do with using a short valve and having somewhat deep rims. Overall I am happy with mine for the price.
