Topeak Road Morph G Bike Pump with Gauge

I ordered this pump over three weeks ago. About two weeks ago I received the wrong pump and had to spend seven dollars to send it back. I e-mailed the seller two days ago about the pump and they said they would be looking at it tomorrow. I feel like I won’t be repayed for the money I spent on shipping. Hopefully they can make it right, but I would not recommend this seller.

horrible. Three people couldn’t figure out how to get the pump to work. First off the pump didn’t come up with a manual but terrible hard to follow steps on the back of package. Even after following the steps and trying everything possible the pump still wouldn’t work right. I would have given this zero stars but amazon will only let it go down to one star. Waste of 30 dollars i would recommend buying a different pump all together. What a waste of 30 dollars this thing is crap.

I had some difficulty inflating my hybrid bike tires with the presta
valves. The trick for me was discovering what it took to make a
complete seal so as to secure the air that was being pumped into the
tire. I had to un-screw the valve head on the pump a little bit so that it could fit all the way down onto the presta valve. It seemed that after
this step, raising rather than lowering the valve head lever made the
seal even more secure. I wasn’t prepared for the pumping effort that was
necessary after getting about 60 psi into the tire. There is quite a
bit of effort. I also had to swap hands because the pump handle is hard on the hand being used. I found that if I grasp the handle with one hand, and push down on that hand with the other hand while standing up and using the foot to hold the pump steady with the foot pad enables some pretty steady pumping action. Be patient and keep pumping, the guage will eventually show 120 psi. Yes the pressure seems to jump in 10 psi increments.
Getting the valve head on the pump off of the valve on the tire must
be done quickly to not lose any air. So I lowered the lever on the valve
head on the pump to the flush position and then yanked the valve head off
of the valve. Got a little cut on my right index finger in the process
so I will guard the right hand used for valve head removal from going up into the tire axle next time. The product definitely needs a manual.
I don’t think I will mount the pump on my bike but rather will protect it
from the elements by keeping it in my pack.

I keep this pump on my road bike which originally had some cheap pump. This pump is a vast improvement. Foot peg, extending air host, long stroke, and gauge make this quality pump a great purchase.

My last pump got run over by a car after coming loose from it’s tension-mount on a busy road. As a result, I am grateful for the nice secure mounting bracket with velcro strip for added insurance. The pump is nice and small, but pumps a lot of air with a lot less effort than other pumps I’ve used. I like the hose that prevents putting pressure on the valve while pumping. A few things that would make the pump better: 1) Make the handle a little wider in it’s horizontal position, 2) Make the gauge more precise and easier to read. All in all, the best pump I’ve seen for my needs and at a good price too.
