Suggestions for frame pump

Topeak made a very decent and inexpensive frame pump call the Master Blaster I believe, but I can’t find it in stock anywhere so I’m guessing it’s discontinued. What is a good alternative w/o stepping up to something more expensive like a Silca? I’m looking for a full length frame pump, not a stubby one.

Topeak Road Morph w gauge and...

the little known to most humans optional behind-the-water-bottle-cage mount available from Todson. Not sure why they don't ship the pump with this bracket, but they don't. Lets you mount a water bottle cage with the bracket right behind it.

Aside from the issue of mounting it on a frame, I don't know why more folks are not champions of the Topeak Road Morph (or any of its variants). You can use it like a regular floor pump.

Agreed. High quality. High pressure. Been using Zéfal HPx pumps for decades. I fear the day mine are worn out or broken and I can’t get a new one. Not sexy. They just work.

I’ve never really paid attention to this pump but I just looked at a video and it looks well thought out and useful. Not a fan of how it mounts but other than that it looks great

get them while you can!

with today's carbon frames and frame bags, full length frame pumps are just not selling...I had a Blackburn that I had on my gravel bike and it just disappeared...I didn't have it strapped down while in the dirt;( I like the idea of the morph but couldn't see me strapping it on my Stigmata...or any of my bikes. I went with the Silca Tattico (non bluetooth).

I just bought 2 masterblasters. They are the best, scoop them up while they are available.

I really hope they release something else but similar, its a great pump, cheap and better than the $180 silca

They all work....to an extent

In a way, they all worked....but in the order of my preference and assessment of their practical day to day use...(From left to right)

a have a friend who used to carry one in his back jersey pocket. it was ridiculous.

if my topeak master blasters ever die, I'm going to carry a lezyne road drive. I know the OP isn't after a mini pump, but that particular one is good enough to replace a frame pump, IMHO. better even, in some ways.
