I got the SKS/Renkompressor replacement head for an old floor pump,
and while that head was really nice when new, the gasket didn't seem
to last. I partly blame sloppy use by another of the pump users, but
it was a little finicky at best. I have a Bontrager floor pump now
that i won at a bike race that works really well; gauge at the top,
dual head, and the handle locks down so you can actually carry it by
the handle too. I've also used and liked the Park and Topeak Joe Blow
floor pumps.
