Found this thing on the side of the road yesterday in a pile of lumber. Rode home carrying it in one hand haha. Fixed the cracked hose, polished and waxed it, greased the slide and now it’s good as new.

Just that one SKS pump everyone has.
My specialized pump, $8 from a thrift shop.

Custom painted. It was my paint test before re-painting a frame. The pump is probably over 30 years old now, the paint job about 3 years old. If you zoom in, you can see I didn’t get the mask pressed down well enough on the “I”. It still works great but needs a new hose.

I just quite like my Topeak Road Morph G. Big fella with a little peg you can flip down and hold the pump in place with your foot.
need a good standup high volume pump so bad. i only have those itty bitty ones you can mount by your bottle cage. which are great for taking with you and using on a trail, but back at home i feel ridiculous pumping away for whole minutes

Have had this one for a while. Dates back to the late 60s. Swedish made!
