I have real difficulty in getting rear shocks up to pressure using the std RS or Fox supplied pumps. I also have a superdooper Lezeyne one which is the biggest piece of shit in my toolbox ( it fell apart on the first day I used it, when all the o rings decode to leave the pump - but I couldnt remember where I bought it from!)
I run rears about 230 on the 161/ Flare Max and 260 ish on the Trek - but getting there is near impossible at the higher pressures.
Any recommendations
This is not helped by me having bicep strength issues in my right arm - hence the floor standing idea?
Good quality shock pump. Floor standing?

Digital for me. Not floor standing though.
His gets checked twice per day at races

Re: Good quality shock pump. Floor standing?
I am probably being thick here - but can you use a floor (tyre) pump? I have always assumed the volume will fuck shocks?
But that is only fronts - and to about 55psi! Even I can do thatweeksy wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2024 5:20 pm https://hopkinsoncycles.co.uk/product/r ... 8AQAvD_BwE
