make sure the pump is capable within the pressure u require. not too much and not too little. say your shock requires 100 psi. u dnt wanna get a pump that starts registering near 100 psi. and max's out at 1000 psi. that's too much. aside from than, just get one w/ a good dependable gauge. a plastic cheap looking gauge is a no-no since that's what you are buying w/ these pumps. any1 can make a pump, a good gauge is where your money should go. oh yeah that zefal does look plastic-ky. just get a simple looking made of aluminum pump. it's not as purdy looking as the zefal but will last longer. oh and the head of the pump, the one that screws into the fork, should be as small as possible... coz u know how those things have to go on through some tight places.... between suspension plates, recessed cavity on a fork... etc.
