Likes easy to use,easy to read guage with rotating dial to mark psi needed, well made, easy on the wallet.
Dislikes none
Bought it to replace the floor pump I've had for 26 years. It pumps up tires with speed and little effort.

Great and versatile pump
Review by Anonymous
I have had 5 or 6 Joe Blow pumps in the last 7 or 8 years. They work great, but parts give out and then the pump doesn't work. Usually it's just one part. Right now I have a Joe Blow Floor pump and there is a screw on cap at the end of the Presta valve that has a crack in it, letting air seep out when I am pumping up my tire. The pump is otherwise fine, but won't work without replacing this part. But since parts do not appear to be available, I think I have to scrap the whole thing. Hoping to find a better brand of pump.

The only pump you need.
Review by Key West Biker
I bought this because I have both Presta and Schroeder valves on the bikes and wanted to have a pump that did not need a Presta adapter. It works well, but the lever to set the inflator on the valve is a bit difficult to use. Otherwise, it is solid and seems accurate.

This pump is easy to use because of the small diameter cylinder means low effort and the long pump stroke provides high volume. the pressure gage with its moveable pointer is easy to read and helps insure accurate and consistent pressure settings.
The only negative comment I have is that the double valve is large enough to make hook up and disconnects awkward. Since I have never owned a presta valve tube I would have preferred a schraeder valve only fitting.

This was my third pump and the first that was dependable. Most people I ride with have this pump and each one has been well used and keeps on working. After a few years of group use, I did have to buy a new head after the threads on the stem wore out the rubber, but I found that part online for about $8. Great Pump.

I guess when you are trying to pump your tires up to 150-160 psi, it can get a bit difficult. But at around 100 psi's I started noticing the strain on the pump. I like it, it gets the job done for a good price.
Review by Joe
When I first started bike racing, I picked up one of these pumps because it was the cheapest one I could find that looked pretty sturdy. 5 years down the road, it works like new. I am not easy on any bike gear, this pump has been dropped in parking lots, crammed in trunks, left outside overnight and continues to do it's job. It's nothing flashy but it easily seals onto any valve, and easily inflates the tire and is accurate with psi measurement. What more could you want out of a bike pump?

I've had a JoeBlow before and really liked it until it finally wore out, so I thought this one would be great. What I do like about it is that it is sturdy, appears to be made well, the guage is easy to read and can fill tires to 160psi. What I don't like is the difficulty using the pump. NO, the hose IS NOT extra long! It is the shortest hose I've ever used! The head has to be placed on the tire valve very quickly and definitively or air will come out of the opposite side of the head. Securing the pump head to the tire valve requires quite a bit of effort, infinitely more than any other pump I've ever used. For the price (bought on sale) the pump is OK but I'll probably try another brand the next time I need a pump.

When my wife saw this, she said, "Really?", "Joeblow?". I told her we needed to get past that and look at the quality build and ease of use this pump provides. It is easy to use with the dual valve capability, she's a Schrader person, I'm a Presta kinda guy. The multi-tip attached with no problems and stayed put. I just installed new tires/tubes on one of my bikes and this pumped them up from flat to 60psi in like 9 or 10 pumps. In my 50+ years of serious cycling, I've owned a few floor pumps but mostly used hand pumps, so this is a huge upgrade for me. The large gauge is nice, I don't need one that large but I may as my eyes start to fail. After filling the tires, I checked them with two different gauges and they were all within a pound or so. Some of the reviews complained about the plastic base, all I can say is that it is strong and solid. I hope to have another 10-15 years of serious riding ahead of me and I totally expect this to be my last pump purchase. I would buy again but don't think I'll have to.
Review by Lotek7
The biggest problem I've had with pumps is getting them to lock down securely on the on the tube. No so with this pump which also happens to be light and easy to read. Pumping up a tire shouldn't be stressful but I bet we've all had one of those mornings. I've actually given away my two other pumps. My son-in-law has the Blackburn Piston 3 which while a big improvement over my worn out Ascent had the issue I mentioned.
Review by CMHippy
I use it for my two bicycles. A touring bike and a road bike. The very easy to see gauge helps pinpoint the tire pressure I like using for each one of the bikes. A large, metal base helps keep the pump sturdy while pumping.
Review by Sharpbakers
Bargain floor pump that just works. Gets the job done at a good price. Won�t have enough volume to pop tubeless setups, but I didn�t need it for that.
Review by Hervephd
That's my 3rd floor Topeak Joeblow pump in 15 years. I like the design, easy to inflate most types of tires (bikes, cars, mowers, sport balls). Does the job well. Hot climate temperatures will eventually dry up a gasket.

Works nice and has an easy to read gauge.
Review by ajwilk
Having a quality floor pump is essential for any cyclist. I have a few Topeak JoeBlow pumps and they are always reliable and accurate. Especially now, with tubeless set-ups, it's important to get your pressures right.

I had an older model Joe Blow pump, but this newer Joe Blow Sport lll is much improved. Couldn't have made a better purchase.
