The cage mount works good in my opinion and that's how I carry it. The mount is a piece that fits between the frame and bottle cage with holes that lineup with both. The bottle cage bolts basically attach it to the frame. The velcro strap on the carbon version is just a little long but can be trimmed so it doesn't look unsightly.

The one sold cheaply at REI differs from the reviewed model, in that it is made of aluminum rather than carbon fiber, and is a foot long instead of seven inches.

Bryan, how well did the cage mount work? I have a Campy CF cage on a titanium bike frame; do you see any mounting issues?

Steven, thanks for stopping by. Wow, $10? That's unbelievable deal. I looked and couldn't find it. Do you have a link we can share with everyone else?

Thanks for the review! REI has them on sale for $10 so I did some quick googling and found this.

@Har Rovers: I'm currently out of town and can't answer your question right away. If nobody has answered them by the time I return I'll contact Genuine Innovations and see if we can't get some answers for you.

I bought a carbon SecondWindRoad Mini. I made it on my bike.

He works very good. Bud, I lost the black nippel at the top and I lost the grip for pumping.

I think this is not good of a pump for that price.

Can I replace this parts and where can I buy this in the Netherlands?

Kind regards,

Har Rovers

@jaxgtr: I really like how well it worked. You and I had discussed before about my disappoint with previous frame pumps so I was surprised at how well this one worked. The CO2 half worked flawlessly as well. This thing is small enough and light enough to just throw in a jersey pocket for a ride.

Very cool. I looked at one of those online, but I was not sure about the workability. Good to hear.
