Key aspects: 1) Steal base is wide and stable. 2) Pressure guage is located at top of shaft. It is easy to read as far as pump guages go. 3) Pumping is effortless. I attached it to my mini-van tires, and with a good deal of pumping, was able to top off the pressure. Not more convenient than a air compressor, but definitely do-able in 5 - 10 min of pumping if you need to do it. 4) Pressure guage is accurate, and includes a bleed valve so that you can release air without removing the hose from the valve. Only complaint: the T-type valve adapter is just a little bulky. It could be a problem if you need to get it into a really tight space (this problem is very unlikely for the typical user, but possible I think). A cheap valve extender from your local sports store would fix this problem if it occurs, and it may be worth the hassle to have both schrader and presta adapters permanently affixed to the pump. Definitely a good buy. Would highly recommend, and would definitely buy it again. 29 of 30 found the following review helpful: Not quite as thrilled as the previous reviewers.May 14, 2007By R. Tucker The pump didn't work when I took it out of the box - the Shrader side of the valve leaked air out as fast as I could pump it in (using the Presta side of the head). The good news is I e-mailed Topeak and they immediately sent a replacement head. I swapped it out and was back in business. -1 for quality control, +1 for customer service. After figuring out a couple of quirks of this pump, I am now satisfied with it. To me, it is a bit of a clumsy operation to get the head firmly seated on the valve and then flip over the lever to lock it down. The tendency is to bend the valve - you really have to hold the head firmly while locking it down to make sure you don't damage the valve. Also, you have to pump till the gauge shows WAY more than you want in the tire to overcome the seal of the Presta valve (yes, I do purge the valve after opening it). Once the valve pops, the pressure reading is accurate and you can start filling the tire. I'm sorta' new to Presta valves and don't know if this is common, but it was not a problem with either of my Topeak Road Morph pumps. (GREAT on-bike pump, by the way.) Hope this helps someone. 13 of 13 found the following review helpful: Topeak - JoeBlow - Great customer serviceJul 16, 2008By Idaho Bike Rider In 2005 I purchased a Topeak - JoeBlow - Sprint floor pump which I didn't use much in 2007. Anyhow, a couple of weeks ago it got so that it was unable to reach 120 psi without leaking. I went to the Topeak website and contacted the company. They sent a rebuild kit which consisted of a washer and a couple of springs. That did not do the trick. I wrote again (their website states that if you describe where the pump is leaking they will send the correct part). I did that, and today received a complete replacement of the gauge assembly. That has to be over 50% of the value of the pump. I installed it and the pump operates like new. So if you need a floor pump in the future, I recommend a Topeak - JoeBlow. 4 of 4 found the following review helpful: Terrific Pump!May 07, 2009By James B. Sprouse "jbs" Purchased this to replace a new Blacburn Tower 3 pump that I purchased that had a lousy valve design (stear clear of it!)....will be going back to the local bike store ASAP. Topeak pump is very smooth...easy to attach/detach...easy to inflate...and very durable construction. I was worried from the picture about it's valve design, but the lever is metal and the whole thing works perfectly and very durable. 3 of 3 found the following review helpful: Good pumpSep 16, 2009By G. M. Diller This is a good pump. It does the job, has a good gauge, and a good seal. I like the lock. It holds the head on well and only allows the hose pressure to escape when unlocked. It's a heavy pump, though. I can't take it on a trip. The base is steel or something and it makes it real heavy. It'll do the job at home, but you'll have to find a light pump for touring.
