LEZYNE Floor Pump Sport Digital Drive has been flawless. 65 euros in Europe. Digital numbers give you a feeling that it's accurate.
Floor pump?

Beautiful. Do have pitures of the Driveside? What rear hub did you use? You must be like 160lbs with those small rotors? Which Bike was more expensive? Avy is going out on a very small limb and say this one,as it is Ti. With the parts on each Bike, I don’t know? Sold this one did you?
If you are not running a Belt,such as the new one,why have the split?
Avy
How long did you run it for? Ie. what sort of mileage did you get out of it?
IME the tension required of every belt drive I've ever seen ruins hub, freewheel, BB bearings (or all 3) in what I'd consider a relatively short time.
Years, you run a belt loose, people who don't should be slapped.
THIS! Like a chain, it must only be tight enough to not slip. Unfortunately Gates put out a phone app that encourages people to make it way too tight and I deal with the repercussions amongst my tandem customers regularly.
That’s Crazy? “A very small limb “ is right in the way in that picture,right where Avy wants to see?
I see you are a man of one liners. So tell us Monkeys,which one was more expensive?
Avy
This reply really answered nothing.
Sounds like you're gonna be busy slapping an awful lot of bike manufacturer assemblers tho.

It says that your report of hub, freewheel, and BB bearing damage implies that they were run with bely way overtensioned.
I ran Hadley hubs used a belt on a couple different bikes. As far as mileage, I can't say, how much does a person ride in three years?
Anyways, I never had a problem with a belt, would consider running one again if I had enough time, to be in good enough shape, to ride single speed again.

No. You genuinely are the only one who can say.
Some people less than 30miles.
Some people MOAR than 300000 miles. But I'm gonna assume some vague distance in between those for you.
A less vague answer was kinda the point in asking you but i've kinda lost interest TBF
I have a Joe Blow Pro (also my college nickname, NTTAWWT) that has been flawless for about 20 years, which is bittersweet as a new fancy floor pump would be fun to get for no real reason, but can't justify doing so with this one still going strong.
That said, I'd likely replace it with the same, current model.

Do they make penis-shaped phones? In orange?
You know what... I don't wanna know.
At Interbike Northstar I rode a FS Nikolai with gearbox & belt that worked great. Maybe not quite for me (such a weight weenie) but I'm amazed half of MTBers aren't on that setup
Buy the exact same model, but with digi guage, and give your old pump to a house you see with bikes that are nearly flat. Several times I've used this logic to get myself new pumps and it really helps get other people riding more. It's wild how many people refuse to spend money on a quality pump and because of that their transportation bikes get under used and cost them in pinch flat repairs. Once you go digi you never go back.
Does that have much of a storage tank on it? With a compressor its good to have decent volume so you can use a high flow connector to seat tubeless setups nicely.
2 gallon, I have put fat bike tubeless on with it.
Forgive me Brother,but if the Bolt is there for a Belt setup,why is it on the Fatty?
Can you Not have the bolt runnin a chain? You said “almost every” Reeb has it. I am wondering if you could have gotten the Fatty with no bolt? Or was it considered,custom mo money?
Avy
You could make the connection permanent by never removing the bolt.
2018. It was an alloy frame with not-light parts so compared to a carbon Scott with very light wheels, parts, and XX1 11spd it was all-around heavy. If I rode in conditions that gave me drivetrain problems I'd strongly consider one of those gearbox/belt Nikolais. It could be built lighter than most people's enduro bikes.
My old Joe Blow has been replaced but it's getting a birthday anyway, going to work out how to get one of these-
And a Kuwahara head on it.
I like the old Joe Blow pump, after 10yrs it still feels better to use than the Spesh one I bought to replace it.

Are those heads both schrader and presta?
I have a Guage that I found at Mec that I use for the fat bike. The ones on my pumps never seen very accurate.
One plus is that this thing doesn't need to clamp to the valve or anything, which can be annoying when running super low pressures.

Also have a digital gauge, but would like to cut down on two step process. Yes, I'm that lazy.
And, don't owned any skinny tire bike.
My current defunct pump gauge started at 10psi.
Edit: Got a Makita air compressor for mounting tires.

I vowed that I would never have to pump a tire to more than 4 bars, so I got a Joe Blow Mountain, and it has been perfect. Because of the large diameter, tubeless is easier too, even though it doesn't have a 'booster'. Dial is also easier to read.
If I didn't own gravel or road bikes, I probably would have chosen the 'Fat' variant.

I've been really happy with this thing: https://www.jensonusa.com/Foundation-Airblast-Tubeless-Floor-Pump
It is not low pressure, but I have an analog gauge for determining actual tire pressure. Shockingly, it's pretty accurate. This pump allows me to inflate tubeless with the reservoir, should I need it, and I do both road tires at 100psi and MTB at 22.

I have 3 different meiser gauges sitting on my work bench versus trying to use the ones built into pumps. Fat, MTB and road pressures.
I don’t know about you peasants, but my $20,000 fleet of bicycles deserves better https://silca.cc/collections/floor-pumps/products/terra-floor-pump
anybody uses this?
0.5psi increments and up to 150psi
could be ok to adjust pressure before a ride?
