    I'm looking to buy a good tire pump with a gauge. Any suggestions?

    Frame pump? Topeak Road Morph with gauge.

    Floor pump: Joe Blow by Topeak is GREAT.

    I also have that exact combination.

    Road Morph - big enough so I don't have to manhandle it, has gauge, gets to taht higher pressure.

    Joe Blow: LBS pulled out three different pumps to demonstrate why they consistently recommend it to dainty and delicate riders (with no upper body strength to speak of) such as myself. It's noticeably easier to whang up and down. This was very nice in that six months when my car tires had slow leaks.

    I have a Silca Track Pump for home and a Silca frame pump on the bike. Both are at least 25 years old and still work great, but you have to maintain them by oiling the pump leather and gasket washer every so often. You can buy replacement brass chucks and heads if needed.
