Zefal AIR PROFIL MICRO

This mainly aluminium pump offers an impressive level of performance, showing the benefits of going for a medium-size – rather than a genuinely tiny – design.

The foot-long barrel and extensive stroke length allow you to get tyres up to and over 100psi without you feeling as though you’re going to pull a muscle.

It’s got a metal locking lever and primarily metal construction, though a slightly larger handle would have increased comfort a little. But that’s a tiny quibble. It’s light, efficient and clips neatly under your bottle cage
