Review: Lezyne Classic Dirt Drive Floor Pump
posted Jun 19, 2013 by maddslacker
Lezyne floor pumps have long been a staple in bike shops around the world. I had been looking for a replacement for my broken department store pump for a while, so at Outerbike last fall I made note of what the demo booth mechanics were using....

Make yourself one of these! A friend of mine made his one for herself! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/06/19/abeny9yq.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Good idea! I went through a fast food drive through with my bike on top of my SUV. Seat got hung...

KleinGuy reviewed Tom Triplet
Lots of roots and tight areas. It's pretty much all flat, but all of the roots and everything keep you constantly pedaling. It's getting a lot nicer bc the SEGA-SORBA chapter has been doing a lot of work to it. There is now a kiosk and signage up on the trail. Still lots of fun even though its in south Georgia!

KleinGuy reviewed Heritage Park
Lots of roots, but fun trail. I did a race here right after a big storm (I know that's horrible trail etiquette, but I was registered and drove a long way) and the roots were like ice. A couple of creek crossings looked like crazy whitewater. Has some good flow and downhill areas along with some climbing. I thought it had a good mix of everything. Fun trail!

KleinGuy reviewed Georgia International Horse Park
Fun set of trails. There are some nice flowy sections, but also some climbing. The open rock side is pretty rough, but fun as well. I like the Steeplechase side the best. Mainly bc it's in the woods and has some nice downhills and flow. Fun trail!

KleinGuy reviewed Unicoi State Park
Lots of climbing! I did a race here and not real sure how they had us routed, but I felt like I was going uphill the whole time! There were some fast downhills, but I was so tired from climbing that I didn't get to enjoy them as much as I wanted to. Lots of great scenery and a great location near Helen.

KleinGuy reviewed Lakeside Trail
Great set of trails. I did a race here in 2011 and it was HOT! It was pretty rough bc the trail was fairly new. There wasn't a whole lot of areas to recover. Seemed to be constantly pedaling. Lots of roots and rough areas. It was a challenge, but was still fun!

I've had my Silca floor pump for going on 30 years now, have replacedthe leather washer twice. Simple classic which will outlast me. Cheers Barry

Getting the cog railway down may not be an option if you don't have tickets and the train is full. My lady found this out the hard way, and had to drag her altitude-sick companion back down the trail because...

jamis29er replied to Re: rear tire on the forums
I run 20 psi max in my tubeless 29er setup. 28 - 30 psi max if I'm running tubes. That puts as much tire on the ground as possible for traction plus it softens the ride some for my old ass. Doesn't...

This is a gorgeous-looking pump! I don't know if I'll ever plunk down that much $$ for a floor pump because I can usually get 5+ years out of a cheap $15 pump from REI or my LBS, but it...
