This mini pump is LEGIT!
Over the years I've bought a ton of "mini" pumps. While I've had some I like better than others, I find that most of them are made of mostly plastic parts and I end up replacing them after a season of being used. I have ZERO concern with ever having to replace this thing. It's built like a tank...no plastic parts and just feels SOLID. It's probably not the lightest thing out there (not heavy but its all metal/aluminum) but who the heck wants something light if it doesn't work when you need it? I'm 100% going to be carrying a FLO mini pump with me for all of my riding going forward. This one is going on my gravel bike, I think I'll end up with another one or two for my other bikes. Definitely going to carry one in my Camelbak/USWE for my MTB rides too! Thanks for another great product FLO!!!

High quality and works well!
I thought this would be a little better or faster than other hand pumps but not necessarily the case. It does a decent job but I think it's the durability of this that will outlast others which are made of plastic materials.

Metal Housing - Good Ergonomics
I've had the same mini pump strapped to my bike for years. It was made of plastic and finally failed. This pump has two things that I like better than my old one. It is all metal (my old one failed because the plastic cracked on the side) and it has a nice extension hose. Often times when pumping up a flat or just topping off your tire out and about, using a mini pump directly connected to the valve can be sketchy. I've actually broken a valve stem doing this. The ergonomics of this pump are much better in part because it has the flexible hose. In practice, it makes pumping much less stressful both on me and the valve stem.The mounting bracket also works pretty well for my bike as the geometry makes it so that I only really have one spot to mount it and some other brackets add too much plastic between the frame and my bottle holder creating an issue with getting my bottle out easily. Anyhow, this one is thin enough and doesn't get int he way. It holds the pump very well and so far, I haven't had any issues with it moving at all even over very technical terrain. The strap is smartly designed too so that it holds the pump handle in place. That way, it doesn't extend on its own while riding.Thus far, I've been impressed with this pump. I think it will last a good long time, probably more than my previous one. Reasonably priced for its build quality at $50 (as of this review) it is definitely worth considering if you are in the market.

Great pump saved me from walking home!
I originally installed this pump on my daughter's bicycle as the white exterior of the pump seemed to go well with the mint color of her bicycle. She's 7 years old so she's riding a bike with a really small frame so I figured the FLO Mini Bike Pump would be perfect, and it was! One of the things that I liked is that on her bike the bottle holder mount was pretty close to the pedals and the way the FLO Mini bike pump holder is designed, I was able to position the pump higher in the holder without issues so that it would fit nicely. The pump on my mike has to be held right in the middle or it won't fit the holder so I lucked out!The pump mounted up easily enough and I was able to mount it under the frame of the bottle holder which was great. I didn't use the included screws, instead opting to use the ones that came with the bottle holder. We both set out to ride around for the first time in months going down a long hill and riding back and forth on a flat section of road. Wouldn't you know it, after maybe 20 minutes, my rear tire was flat! I went to go use my bike pump on it as it is a larger design that probably would fill the tire a bit quicker and discovered that a plastic ring was missing from the part that connects to the Schrader valve! Luckily, my daughter was still nearby and I used the FLO mini pump to put what I guess to be around 30 psi or so of air into the tire so we could quickly ride back up the hill before the tire went flat. It took me probably around 50 pumps of so to get enough air into the tire where I felt I would have enough air to get back home.The FLO Mini Bike pump definitely saved the day and was the perfect pump for my daughter's bike. The only thing that I would change about the pump (assuming that adding a pressure gauge would require increasing the size too much) is the rubber cap that goes over the tire valve connector. It only covers the smaller part of the red and black valve connector piece and is held on by a sort of O-ring in a groove. While uncapping it the rubber cap came off completely and I can see that easily happening over time by just brushing it with your leg or something. It would be much better if there way a more secure way of attaching it to the pump and also if the cap covered the entire end of the pump and not just the tip of the valve connector piece.

the second best mini bike pump i have ever used
several years ago my travel bike pump of over 10 years mysteriously vanished from my bikes saddle bags. not long after, the replacement mini pump i bought also disappeared. unfortunately, those are 2 cold cases which have not yet been solved, and likely never will be. a lack of hard evidence has allowed the top suspect to walk free for all these years...lucky for me, now that i have this FLO mini pump, bringing my former house-mate to justice hardly matters at all, because this pump is almost as nice as my former one and its a heck of a lot shinier and has much better style. my favorite features about the FLO mini bike pump are as follows:1, the durable extension hose- its crazy that so many mini pumps today still havent caught on to how much easier they are to use when there is a hose. it makes pumping easier and you no longer have to worry about breaking the valve off mid-pump. one suggestion i have it to make the hose just a little longer and add a small folding tab for a foot to make it a mini foot pump. this is how my old, favorite pump was, and it made the excessive pumping so, so much easier.2, the pumping action. the FLO mini pump does take a lot of pumping to fill a standard road bike tire. your arm is likely to be quite tired by the time you are done, but its made at least a little better by how smooth the pumping action on the FLO pump is. one improvement i might suggest would be to add a "pump extender" (not sure what they are called, but ive seen them on a couple other mini pumps), that allow you to move even more air with each pump.3, the weight- it weighs practically nothing- perfect for ultralight, multi day tours/treks.another suggestion i have would be to add a psi gauge (although, i think i saw in the instructional video that this is a modular pump [which is super cool, btw], and you can add a psi gauge part on as a separate buy. it would be cool to have it incorporated right off the bat though.lastly, i do think the asking price of approx, $50 is a bit high. there are other pumps that are quite good for even half this price... although i will say this FLO pump seems to be built quite well and i think will last a long time. the manufacturer claims "made in the USA" and everything seems to point to that being factual (and also makes the 50$ price point make more sense)5 stars, definitely recommend
