Just bought some of Aldi's “Premium Lager” (it's actually not bad) for the match and seen these pumps for sale. Not sure if it's a nationwide deal as the website doesn't reflect the price but they had plenty in Northwich.
They're quite decently priced at £6 imo so for £2 it's a bargain.
It also has the fitting for them French styled valves.

A bit "plasticky" but serve their purpose. I wouldn't put any faith in pressure gauge...far from accurate.

I bought one of these for £5.99 as the hose came off my old track pump. Some of it is actually made of metal and overall it's good value. The gauge is about +30% wrong - gauge said 60psi, my fairly accurate digital pressure gauge said 90psi. However my old track pump was always about +20% anyway so I'm used to it.

I'm from the days of pumping the tyres up and feeling them. Gauges weren't needed back then :smile:

Ah, "the days". But seriously, with these track pumps I've managed to pop several inner tubes over the years - the pumping action is just a bit more effective than the bike pumps I had available to me in "the days", when struggling to push the pump in meant the tyre was blown up.

Quite partial to the Saint Ettienne myself after a friend recommended it a few years ago.
