Review: Lezyne Sport Gravel Drive Track Pump - works with any but excels with wider gravel tyres—excellent cycling Lezyne
Lezyne has designed this pump to work best on 32mm and wider tyres and the barrel is larger than the brand's CNC and Classic Floor Drive pumps. The barrel is made from steel and mounted on a composite Matrix base. The handle features Lezyne's classic wooden look.The analogue gauge on the Sport Gravel Floor Drive is oversized for easy and accurate reading and Lezyne tests each track pump to offer 0.5 psi accuracy.
The chuck on this one is reversible and has been designed with tubeless tyre seating in mind. The flippable design threads directly into Presta valves, or onto the valve shaft with the valve core removed. This allows for a direct, more powerful airflow when seating tubeless tyres. The chuck also has a built-in valve core tool.The hose is extra long to allow tyre inflation with the bike on the ground, work stand or hanging out on a hitch rack.
In all honesty, most folk can easily use this pump for their road tyres as well, because hardly anyone runs their road tyres much above 90psi - especially with a tubeless set-up. Hence, I think this pump offers much more versatility than the name suggests. The pump is very sturdy and possesses that unmistakable Lezyne quality. The barrel is bright red and made of steel, and the analogue gauge is placed at the bottom of the pump so that if it falls, the gauge will not take as much impact and lose calibration. And talking of calibration - I found this gauge to be extremely accurate and also one of the easiest pump screens to read.I also had first-hand experience of what Lezyne means when it says this pump is fully rebuildable.
I also managed to seat two sets of tubeless tyres - it is noticeably more effective in doing so with this track pump. The valve-core remover that is integrated into the pump is a little on the looser side - meaning that it fails to add much to the overall performance of the pump - but this is a very minor fault.The only real niggle I really had with this pump is the screw-on chuck. I am more used to a click-on type, and it was first rather frustrating to screw on.
