Ben,

Paint the pump to match the frame, be stylin', and don't get a flat. My best experience with a Silca is 60 psi, enough to get you home usually, but still risky for light tubular rims. Try to push too much pressure with one and you can split the plastic body and rip you hand open, as did a friend of mine. Do CO cartridges do any better fro pressure? If so carry a couple of those. As for me, it's the Zefal HP!
