road bike pump recommendations

[AW10]

Any recommendations on a pump for a road bike? Will carry a spare tube (presta), patch kit, folding tyre and tyre levers but need to get a pump as well so personal experiences welcome.

I take a compact Co2 pump and a spare cartridge on my rides. I use a Giant control blast , but there are heaps of co2 pumps on the market. Frame pumps look horrid IMHO

Track pump at home, CO2 on the road.

Lezyne Pressure Drive (edit) it might be a Roasd Drive. It's Lezyne, it's small :-)

I'd get a normal pump that also does CO2. Something like this:

or this:

Or similar

IME it's good to have a normal pump, why would you not go out with an unlimited supply of air? It also helps to have a normal pump for the slight inflation and deflation of a tube when re-fitting the tyre. CO2 is great when it's cr4p outside and you want it up to pressure quickly.

I also prefer them to have a hose rather than a direct attachment to the valve. It makes it a lot easier to use.

I've got one of these. Works well.

Same as most on here in that I have a track pump at home and will use CO2 out on a ride. For longer rides or when touring I have one of these small Lezyne Pressure Drive pumps.

It also has a small hose that is stored inside the pump and is small enough to fit in a pocket. It's claimed to get up a genuine 120 psi but it gets quite tiring after 80psi out at the side of the road, but that's usually enough to get you going again. Saved me from a dreaded phone call home to come pick me up a couple of times when I've had multiple punctures.
