Clancy pal, you are too kind. You know what's sad about this...all these pumps that I got, they came from my local co-op...conceivably they were "abandoned" by their previous owners in light of...
And to be fair, I also used the "newer" methods on some of my rides but when it comes to larger volume tires and gravel bikes, i revert back to frame pumps for their pumping capacity and long-term reliability.
To be clear, I think most of the pumps that I have shown on my first picture are about on par with each other except the older Silica (on the right) which by today's standards, is a bit flimsy. I have broken two so far just from normal use, maybe they have deteriorated over time, I dunno, they are pretty old.
