Fine for Schrader valve, not prestas

Schrader valve

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

You get what you pay for with this pump. Easy to use and has held up over the 3 years I've owned it. It's fine on a standard schrader valve. But when I started riding a bike with presta valves, I found this pump won't engage the valve unless I let all of the air out of the tire first. I ruined three presta valves trying to attach this pump. It's especially leaky and difficult to use on long-stem prestas. If you're riding a road bike, I'd skip this pump and pay a few extra bucks for something like the Turbo, which I'm using now with no probs at all.

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

I noticed a review earlier regarding this pump being bad for Presta valve stems. That's pretty much all we've used this pump on (long and short stems) and we haven't had any issues. This pump has worked great for us and the gauge is easy to read. It's also worked well on Schraeder valves on the rare instances we've needed it for mountain bike tires.

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

I have always had good luck with Topeak products until this. A family member had one (still does and works fine) so I figured I would get one as it was a Topeak and theirs worked great. Well, it worked for slightly over two years until the metal in the head sheared in half. In the time I had it I know it inflated LESS than 100 tires and never more than 80 psi. I returned it to REI to see if it was under warranty (which apparently the Topeak warranty is only two years on pumps but the REI warranty helped) and replaced it with a Serfas. The clerk, who did not know I was returning one, told me that a lot of Topeak floor pumps get returned (even the nicer models) but very few Serfas.

Poor Presta Performance

By mgoblue0970

Pros

Cons

Inaccurate Dial
Leaks
Leaks when filling Presta

Best Uses

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

I agree with the other opinions that this pump stinks for Presta valves... especially the long stem ones for aero rims. That's the only type I use so I cannot vouch for Schraeder valves. I used to have a Cat 3 license so I know my way around equipment. After two years of wrestling to fill road bike tires just over 100psi, the metal tube fatigued and snapped off at the base. I guess I got what I paid for. If it works out for you, great... but I wouldn't recommend this pump to anyone!

cheap materials

Cheap materials
Hard to get a good seal

Best Uses

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

aside from the well documented problems getting the head to seal, it worked ok for the short time it worked.

topeak used a cheap plastic (not rubber) hose; it will quickly begin to crack where it bends, and will blow out not long after.

todson, their support company, refuses to warranty the hose even though it is obviously a materials problem, and will offer to sell you a new one for about half the cost of the pump. don't do it - you can get 3/16" fuel line for about $2 at your local auto parts store which fits perfectly.

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

I've owned 2 of these pumps and both have started to fail after about 1 year. The 1st leaked at the valve, the 2nd is leaking at the pressure gauge back into the barrel. Next time I'll pop a few extra bucks for the upgrade.

not good for high pressure presta

Best Uses

Mountain Bikes

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

I used this on a mountain bike with schrader valve for about a year with no problems. I moved to a road bike with 120 psi and presta and within a year, it leaks. It has always pumped up to a high pressure after the first stroke or two before the pressure finally pushed the valve in. I was guessing that's how the presta pumps worked, but after reading some other reviews, I guess not.

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

Bought on sale, seems like a good buy. Gauge is accurate. I'm using 80 lbs on my mountain bike and 100 lbs on my hybrid. I very much liked the fact that the 'JoeBlow' came with adapters for sports balls and float toys. Also, very much appreciate the fact that when REI puts an item on sale it's not hype or some close-out on marginal quality goods, and they return to regular pricing following the sale. I bought this pump a year ago and am very pleased.

It worked great for the 2 year warranty, then it started leaking at the head a month later. The company would not cover under warranty. Do they design them to fail after 2 years?

Does Not Like Long Stem Presta Tubes

By PS123

Ruins Long Stem Valves

Best Uses

Comments about Topeak JoeBlow Sport Floor Pump:

This pump works very poorly with long stem Presta valves. It is very difficult to both connect and disconnect the pump to the valve. As a result, I have ruined several tubes using this pump. Twice the force required to disengage the pump from the tube stem tore the tube where it joined the stem.
