Cannondale Airport Plus Floor pump review

Standing a smidgen over 2ft means just over a dozen pumps from flat to 100psi, without the need to swing on the handle to get the barrel down. My only gripe is the dial numbers are on the small side, especially if using the even smaller BAR reading.

I admit arm strength isn't my forte, so hats off to Cannondale for achieving a tick on my track pump wish list.
The simple locking mechanism bites the valve securely, allowing me to use both hands on the handle, without the need for a glamorous assistant.
The base plate is large enough to stand on, keeping the pump stable and nearly a metre of hose keeps you from feeling on top of your bike.
