A road pump that really works
I average around 200 miles a week of riding, so flats happen no matter how good your tires or how careful you are. I was frustrated with smaller pumps because they wouldn't come up to full pressure, no matter what they claimed, and as a result I often suffered pinch flats later in the same ride. I tried to solve that with CO2 canisters, but was tired of throwing the empties out. The Topeak Morph has solved my problem. Be aware that the pump is a bit larger than the average, I was able to mount mine under the down tube since the frame on my bike is drilled for electronic shifters, and I won't go electronic for a while...
The best road pump I've ever used!
I bought this pump the day after I had two flats. It is easily the best take-along pump ever made. It quickly and easily pumps a road tire up to 110 psi and possibly higher. I'm nearsighted, so reading the gauge is no problem. Carry a small gauge if you need to. I have lent this pump many times to other riders who get frustrated with their mini-pumps, or have blown through all their CO2 cartridges. Mine is mounted on the underside of the cross tube of my road bike, the only place I could fit it with two bottle cages in place. I have to use a squat bottle in the rear cage (REI Item # 743053). I carry it in my backpack on long or hard mountain bike rides. Recommendation: don't ride without it!
Best Pump Ever
I have had this pump since at least 2012 and if I remember right, probably 2010. I tour and have relied on this pump alone. I have used it extensively. I trusted it enough to take only it on a couple of tours in the desert southwest. If it weren't for this pump, I may still be out there pushing my bike back to civilization (just kidding). So, it's 8-10 years old and I have thought of buying a new one, but this one that I have still works like new. I wouldn't ride with anything else for daily use or for touring. I even use it at home. I don't need a floor pump. My tires inflate to 70-75 psi just fine with this one.
Quickly inflate your tires with this pump, but ...
I have had this pump for 2.5 years. Parts have slowly failing over time. After one year the fold-out foot pad broke off. Not a big deal, but it works better with it. Now the pump piston escapes too much air and takes a lot of extra pumps to fill tire. For the first two years, despite the broken foot pad, this pump has performed well. It quickly allows me to add air. I have a fat-tire bike and I change my air pressure a few times each day of riding (I ride about 100-150 days a year) for the conditions (sand, asphalt, rock-garden, snow, etc.). The warranty on this pump is two years. "Missed it by that much." Doh!
Not too big, not too small, just right
This pump works great for long rides and touring. The extendable flexible hose and fold-out foot pad make it a breeze to use. It is easily pumped up to 100 psi. If you pressure your tires to 120 or higher you will probably struggle to reach it and it may be impossible for higher than 120. The dial gauge is small and not easy to read but I've found it accurate and extremely useful. I keep it in my pack as I don't like leaving anything on my bike that can easily be stolen when it is locked up, so I can't attest to it's mounting. If I was forced to only own one pump, this would be the one.
Worked great but stopped working after it got wet
Two years ago, we were on a weeklong inn to inn group cycling trip out West when we had a flat. The small pump we brought was inadequate. Luckily the group sweep rider came along and had this Topeak Morph pump and rescued us. We were impressed by its ability to essentially replace a floor pump but still be portable. So, we bought our own as we got back to town. Since then, we have taken it with us on several long trips, most recently on the C&O and GAP Trail, where it rained. The pump stopped working and apparently the rubber gasket inside the tube no longer seals well enough to pump air. I am buying another but now realize it should not be attached to the bike if you are cycling in the elements, but rather should be kept in a waterproof case or pack.
Not Bad, but Could Be Better
Nice, lightweight frame pump that functions like a floor pump. Not as robust as the competing product made of metal, but lighter. Pumps up to full pressure in no time, though once you get into the high numbers, a lot of effort is needed. The pressure gauge is helpful, but it reads 10-15 psi higher than the true figure. The hose is an off-the-shelf part used by other brands and could be of higher quality; not only is the gauge inaccurate, but the head doesn't grip presta valves very well. Also, the foot peg would be a good feature, but it is prone to breakage. Replacement parts are available, but with a hefty shipping charge tacked on. Finally, why does the manufacturer offer bottle cage mounts for their other pumps, but not this one? Overall, a good product, but could stand some improvements.
A good insurance plan
I've been carrying (the same) one of these for six or seven years now. I don't use it at home for my general maintenance and repairs, but it's seen a LOT of use on the road over the years and it hasn't failed me yet. I've even stopped to help riders who thought they could get away with just carrying a CO2 cartridge & filler, but had difficulty using it, dumped all their gas, and didn't have a back-up plan. It's durable, easy to use, and will pump your tires to 100 psi if you want it badly enough. The gauge is a little difficult to read, but that's picking nits. If you want a reliable pump that will fill your tires when they've lost their air and don't care too much about the extra bulk and almost insignificant extra weight, this is the pump for you. I have recommended this pump to several cycling friends, and they have thanked me for the great advice.
Decent, but not really practical
The best thing this pump has going for it is the built-in pressure gauge, which means you don't have to carry one extra piece of equipment. Otherwise, I have found this pump difficult to use and not very practical. The stroke force required seems a bit high compared to others, this causes the handle to fold back down while you're pumping. The floor lever doesn't really hold the pump steady and using such a short pump braced against the ground forces you to bend over awkwardly. I am much happier with the ease and simplicity of my old Topeak Mini Master Blaster (similar to the Peakini).
pumped about this pump
Riding cross-country and down the west coast, I spent a lot of time with a lot of other bikers. This pump was by far the best of all the other models people carried with them. It is by no means a replacement for the floor pump (though I went 2 years without one using the Road Morph), but it makes fixing a flat or just topping off your tubes in the morning so much easier. It has a tab to stand on so you don't have to stabilize against the wheel, it has a pressure gauge that is accurate to within about 10psi (good for high psi tires), it has a retracting tube so it lengthens while you're using it, and then handle flips perpendicular to ease the strain on your hand. I've sold two other friends on it so far who have both been using other types.
