Bicycle pump that costs a bit more in purchase but keeps working reliably for years.

- Clapton, 24 July, 2025

I have had a Joe Blow for 20 years which still works like new. Without effort you put bike tyres at high pressure. I even keep my car tyres at pressure with it. The pump I bought was a present for my son.

Pros & Cons

Efficient
High pressure possible
Separate parts from Topeak can be ordered separately
Thick-walled pipe, does not deform
Heavy, but gives an impression of quality

Excellent stable pump

- Marcel, 10 February, 2025

After giving my old, still working fine JoeBlow Sport I, to my son, I just immediately bought the third in the series. Compared to version I, the head is a lot more pleasant to operate. In terms of pumping, the JoeBlow Sport III is just as good as the old one. Should the second son bring No III, I will just switch to a new one (No 4?).

Measuring is knowing and guessing is missing!

- Arnout, 29 August, 2024

What is really nice is that when your bike tyres get the right pressure a pump without a gauge is really guessing whether there is enough bar in them you really cycle much more relaxed with the right pressure I think you do cycle at least two km per hour faster with the same effort.

Pros & Cons

Beautifully designed
Measuring is knowing and guessing is missing
Super nice that psi and bar are indicated

After several cheap bicycle pumps, finally a pump that works and does what the description promises. Easy to attach to the valve and it stays put.
