i've had no problems with my wrench force one, does my marzocchi mx comps, air pressure for my 5th element air and ifp pressure for the shock too
Top Peak DXG or something like that, £17, nice valve bit for accurate setup.

What are you riding these days Mike?! come now..don't be shy..
when are you coming to the Wyre Forest then Jamesey ??

As a shock pump, I quite like my Specalised Windpipe Shock

It also pumps up tyres (not that well, but no worse than micropumps) so is great for those 'take two bottles into the shower' moments......

I like the Fox one.

I had a Topeak Master Blaster and it was shit, always leaked air when you took it off the valve. So you never really knew what pressure you were running.

Lots of them are high/low pressure specific. i.e. for rear shocks or forks.

I have a swinger x3 rear shock and a fox fork will one shock pump do both!?

@Mike

That is one sweet looking ride :-) how do you find your rear shock ?

it's spot on, barely affected by pedalling, yet my back doesn't hurt anymore!

it'll hopefully have some more sensible cranks soon :-)

there's about 20lbs difference between my fox and marzocchi shock pumps reading the same pressure.

I have a swinger x3 rear shock and a fox fork will one shock pump do both!? yes

bah, you only use the gauge as a rough idea, the proof is in the riding!
The gauge, on the same pump will only be accurate with itself, there is no magic formula just a approximation for your weight anyway, so it's not a issue.


220psi on my pump, is always the same, thats all I care about.


For Floats low or high pressure ?? I know the Talas's are low, so could need 2 pumps really.
