Topeak Joe Blow Sport II Track Pump
| Add this item to your wishlist | ||||||
Topeak quality at a great price! Padded elastomer grip and TwinHead connector make this efficient pump comfortable and easy to use.
Floor - or track - pumps make it much easier to inflate tyres, especially if you need a high pressure or have large capacity MTB tyres. Most have an accurate pressure gauge so you can make sure your tyres are inflated correctly, reducing rolling resistance and punctures. Leave the mini pump for emergencies!
The People at Topeak spend a good part of their days listening to cyclists needs and figuring out new ways to make their riding experience more enjoyable. This is born out of a desire to make their products better and better. Made up of a close knit global team of engineers, designers, sales and marketing folks, the Topeak Team continually looks at new ways of approaching cycling and its special requirements... that’s because they are riders too.
At just over £30 Topeak's Joe Blow Sport is not an expensive pump but it certainly performs like one. The construction and operation are pretty hard to fault, making it a good home workshop investment.
The Joe Blow range is extensive, going from £25 for the Max II to £85 for the twin-barrelled Race. The Sport, the second-cheapest pump, gets plenty to recommend it. The construction is all-steel, with the pressed base bolted to the barrel. Further up the range you get 'upgraded' to Aluminium but I'd rather have the longevity than the light weight. The barrel-mounted gauge tops out at 160psi; we didn't have any track tubs to inflate during testing but certainly 120psi was no bother at all, and putting 100psi into a 700x23c took just 24 easy strokes. The elastomer insert makes the handle nice and comfy.
The Sport uses Topeak's TwinHeadâ„¢ adapter, with Presta and Schraeder valves sitting opposite each other and sharing a locking lever. It's a simple and elegant cheaper alternative to a smart head, and means there's no fiddling with spacers. Both sides of the head accepted all the valves we tried with no leaks. The hose isn't the longest but the articulated joint at the valve means the hose you get is more usable, and it clips over the handle when not in use to keep everything tidy.
Overall it's a great workshop tool that should give you years of service. The performance is first rate for the money, and there's been no corners cut in the build. Nice job.
...the hose has a useful joint at the bottom and the guage itself is very clear and sports a target pressure needle... The hose hooks over the excellent handle to lock it in place for transit. You get adapters for footballs and beach toys as part of the package.
Feature packed and well built, a top budget contender
