Lying seductively in a bed of coffee beans at this year’s Interbike show, Norco’s house brand Axiom were displaying a couple of the more interesting mini pumps I’ve seen. Not fundamentally different from anything else on the market, the contrast between anodized/knurled and machined surfaces caught my eye. Satisfying to hold, the Blastair HPL (high pressure long?) and HVL (high volume long?) mini pumps felt nicer than their $40-ish retail price would suggest. Click though for a head details…
Nothing crazy- just what appear to be a well-made pumps with nicely thought out contact points. There’s a lot to be said for that…
