Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
Riding cross-country and down the west coast, I spent a lot of time with a lot of other bikers. This pump was by far the best of all the other models people carried with them. It is by no means a replacement for the floor pump (though I went 2 years without one using the Road Morph), but it makes fixing a flat or just topping off your tubes in the morning so much easier. It has a tab to stand on so you don't have to stabilize against the wheel, it has a pressure gauge that is accurate to within about 10psi (good for high psi tires), it has a retracting tube so it lengthens while you're using it, and then handle flips perpendicular to ease the strain on your hand. I've sold two other friends on it so far who have both been using other types.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
Best for high pressure uses and gauge is accuate enough to get you to where you want to be. Most importantly, you can push against the ground and not try to stabilize the pump against the wheel. Wouldn't trade in my floor pump for this, but it fits on the frame nicely and has held up well over the year I've had it. Tried cheaper pumps like the Topeak Master Blaster and was sorry. It gave out after a few months and is very hard to get to a decent road pressure.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
This pump is so great. Normal frame pumps are so hard to use; you have to hold the wheel with one hand, pump with one hand, and hold the pump itself with your... third hand? Meanwhile your valve head gets torn and you're back to the start. Plus, they all say "pumps to 160 PSI" or whatever, but they don't mention that you have to be Superman to do it.
This pump braces against the ground, and it's got a gauge built-in. Yay! I almost like fixing flats now.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
I'm surprised to read all of the positive reviews on this product. I've had mine several years, and as a pump it's just OK. The gauge sticks and is off by 10-20psi. The worst part is the attachment to the frame. It uses an ungainly plastic clip plus velcro strap that occasionally snags on my shorts. The pump head is supposed to clip to the pump, but it constantly fell out. I had to velcro that down as well. And about every 50 miles the handle jiggles loose and I have to re-secure it. If you're planning on putting this in your pack, it'll work fine. On the frame, it's a pure annoyance.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
This one works! I went through 5 different pumps. Most of them exhausted me and I'd limp home on a low pressure tire. This one takes it up to 100 psi relatively easily and doesn't require mega upper body strength. Also, with the foot brace, you don't overly twist the valve stem while pumping. Worth the little bit of extra weight.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
Easily the most functional frame pump for a Roadie. Can achieve 120 psi without a herculean effort, although it is not easy. Presence of an accurate gauge is invaluable. Will fit in a pack but not jersey pocket. Decent frame mount setup that does not require sacrificing a bottle holder on most frames. Spare mounts allow use on alternate bikes. Not a lightweight but won't leave you stranded. Cheaper pumps out there but most popular frame pump in my club for a reason.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
I've had this pump for four months now. Not one problem. I use high pressure tires (120 psi) on my bike. Takes no time at all to get the desired pressure, very easy to pump and a very accurate gauge. After using Topeak pumps, I'll never use another brand.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
I purchased this pump based on the reviews and has been a great pump when pieces aren't falling off. On my first ride, I used it to pump up a friends tire and after we got riding again the screw cap that fits over the stem came off. I took it back and replaced it only to have the same thing happen. This pump works great but if you get it, carry it in a pack or remember to screw the cap on tight every time you use it.
Service and delivery comments:
Customer service at REI is by far the best around town. I took my bike pump in and they replaced it no questions asked.

Still a good pump. Just not as good as the old one. Turns into a floor pump; you don't have to hold the inflator head with one hand.

Comments about Topeak Road Morph Pump with Gauge:
Pump mounts easily to bike frame; easily converts to pump configuration, with stability "foot". Built-in pressure gage is a good enhancement, allowing manual pressures up to 110 psi. (Advertises 120 psi, but I can only manage 110 psi before arms give out!) Adequate to pump up those flat repairs and get you down the road when stranded!
