Little big pump,
By Steve W (SF bay) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Topeak Micro Rocket AL MasterBlaster Aluminum Bike Pump (Sports)
I was not sure about this pump but thought I would give it a try. If you want to keep your bike light this is a very good pump, light and small. I was amazed at how well it worked. I had a pump that is twice as big and worked fine but in comparison was harder to get to higher pressure. The pump would push back making it very hard to get the tire pressure. This pump works as well at low pressure as it does when the pressure gets higher but you will need to do a lot of pumping. It was not to bad getting the tire up to 50psi, getting it to 80psi the palm of my hand was sore from holding the pump still on the valve. Going to 100psi was after a break and did another little jaunt. Getting to 120psi was the same as 100 with the break. The back pressure was not the problem I could take breaks and get the pressure higher. The pump is very good at dealing with back pressure much better then my Michelin and easier at the higher pressure. I could see it living up to Topeaks claim but doubt any one doing it with out it being there job. I used a gauge but on the road I would'nt have the gauge or the patients to do 100 or 120psi on the road.
It is a very light get you back on the road pump. I bought the aluminum for the reason of for only 10 extra grams of weight at half the price.

Please note the "Presta" Valve!,

Nothing major to add to the other reviews in terms of quality check. It is a tiny product - shorter than most remote controls - and it works well.
However, as a newbie to biking, I was not aware of the difference between a "Presta" and "Schraeder" valve. Old time valves and those on most mountain and hybrid bikes are the SCHREADER type. This one is Presta which is more common on road bikes. If you are not sure which type you have DO NOT BUY this. I had to send mine back for this reason.

Great power in a small package.,

This is a great little pump, amazingly lightweight and small enough to carry in a seat wedge. You'll be amazed at how little effort is required to quickly inflate a tire. I don't see it matching its claims of inflating to 120 lbs or more; I find too much back-pressure to keep getting air in before the tire is inflated to optimal pressure, but it's definitely enough to get you back on the road quickly and easily. Another big plus: It costs half as much as the carbon fiber version, and is only about 1/2 ounce heavier.
