Review on LEZYNE Steel Drive Floor Gloss by Chris Brazington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Much better than the best floor pumps

I've been using a regular swing arm pump for years. Anyone who has done this knows the problems. The worst ones for me were 1) trying to install a lever chuck on a completely flat tire (it forces the stem into the tire cavity, sometimes making it almost impossible to install) and 2) not being able to remove the chuck from the stem without appreciable losing air. Also, I was constantly concerned about the force being exerted on the stem. It's decided. This pump has none of these problems. The screw-on valve mount works smoothly, quickly and effortlessly. Emits a minimal amount of air upon removal. Switching from Presta to Schrader takes a few seconds, which doesn't really matter. stable in use; very large and easy to read meter. Air release button on the cartridge. Quality construction with quality materials. After studying and using it, I was surprised that it is as cheap as it is. Note: At the time of writing this article, the yellow pump is described as using a discontinued ABS-2 cartridge, while the other colors have the current ABS-1 Pro. The photo shows it with Pro. I don't know what actually comes with the yellow pump.
