    WTB: Cheap shock pump

    Looks like the Schrader threads on mine have given up the ghost. Anybody have an extra laying around that I could pick up for cheap?

    Ah ha ha.

    I could probably justify not wanting to put more packaging in the garbage or recycling used gear but honestly I'm just kind of a cheapskate on stuff like this. I already looked on Amazon, but figured if somebody had two but only needed one. . .

    C'mon stucky. You have to have at least 2. I'm not even that far down the road!

    ^^^ never hurts to try. I have 2, but 2 is better than one.

    if the price of a shock pump gives you a sweaty crotch maybe you are in the rong sport?

    I have 2 but you live in like another fuckign country eh?

    I had to buy another one cuz the dial didnt go high enough

    50 $ here 100$ there, it seemed like small potatoes after spending 6 k on the bike

    so make sure you buy one that goes high enough

    It all adds up, right? $25 or $50 here or there means you don't have it to spend elsewhere when you might need that $25 or $50.

    One of the beautiful parts of this place is that someone usual has what you need taking up space in a parts bin...

    I have lots of them but I'm not mailing one to montana because that's just extra cardboard and waste.



    That reminds me, anyone have a burrito they're not using? I could go buy one but that's 7 bucks that could be spent somewhere else. It all adds up you know? Budget is around $1.98. Let me know what you got. Preferably by 1pm PST.

    Ah crap. I literally just bought a pump. I probably needed the higher pressure pump, though as my rear shock is up around 200#.

    Honestly, though, thanks for the offer.

    I wish I could help, but when I buy a new pump, it's also when I torch the threads.

    I've been riding air shocks for 18 years and have never cross threaded a pump. I still use the one I first bought in 2000

    I use shock pumps until the gauges go bad. I have one in my tool box that's been there since the turn of the century

    I lose them or lose faith in the calibration before the threads wear out, but recently had to retire one when the threads were toast. Probably got about 6 years out of that one.
