    I have a several year old Joe Blow with an attached guage. It's very sturdy and easy to use. I've never tried the Road Morph, but I'd guess that a floor pump would still fill a tire a good bit faster and I'd definitely recommend the Joe.

    I just bought a revolotion track (floor) pump. Relatively cheep and does the job. It's got a guage.

    I hadn't realised I was so feeble until I tried to blow up my tyres to a decent pressure using a frame pump .
    If it's not one thing it's another

    Thumbs up Good Question!

    I don't have a floor pump and need to buy one. Was just looking at them on Nashbar yesterday. So, I'm interested. Who makes a good floor pump and, would anyone recommend the kind you plug into your "cigarette lighter" (as it used to be called) in the car over the manual pump?

    I was looking at the Topeak Joe Blow Sport.

    Thanks!
