Anyone out there got any recommendations for a decent pump from a UK supplier ?

Currently using Spinergy/Primo's and I will be giving those Shwalbe Marathon Plus's a go so therefore could do with a decent pump to get them up to 120 psi. Currently just using a hand held bicycle pump.

Any volunteer's to do the pumping ? :)

I use a cO2 pump, and I get my cartridges from a catering firm :crash: A lot cheaper than a bike shop, but in the garage I have a Clarke Ranger air compressor which goes up to 115psi (8 bar). My c02 pump is in my handbag as its so tiny. http://www.sbrsports.com/112-460284
