Which is more reliable, smaller, lighter???

The Slime mini pump or the Sparrow Airman?

Other suggestions?
(don't want to carry a gutted Wally world pump) :D

Thanks, Spencer

Hey Spencer, I don't know anything about the Airman but Autozone has the Slime for $29.99 with a $20 rebate. Hurry though, the rebate ends 1/8/08, I think.

I have one from Wally World that was only $10.00, works as well or better than the Airman Sparrow and only slightly larger . My Airman Sparrow was replaced by the company with an updated model. Can't remember name of new model, but it has a screw on connector instead of the flip lever and the cigarette adapter toggles to powerlet. None of the 3 units gauges are 100% accurate, so I use a seperate tire gauge.

Attached a link to MCN article on pumps. I have the Slime and am pleased with the performance. It fills at a good rate, leads are long, is small enough to fit into a fairing pocket of the ST1300, included were different power attachment methods.
