The PMP4's connector embodies all that we’ve come to expect from Park Tool — it feels like quality with a well engineered locking lever and is totally leak-free when it meets the valve.
At the other end, however, we were surprised to find that it was let down by the flimsy plunger and flip-out handle.
The latter in particular wanted to flip back inwards during use and graunch our knuckles on the top of the barrel.
