I've considered a frame pump but I would like for it to be transferable to any of the 6-7 bikes I might ride that day. I have a few older frames that do have the nipple to hold a frame pump, but I would hate to buy individual pumps. I simply don't like the idea of disposable CO2 cartridges. I honestly don't flat that often. I think I've had 2-maybe 3 flats while riding in the last 5-6 years, and I ride 3-6 days a week, mostly under 20 miles at a time though. I've bought a couple very cheap pumps before, but they were not reliable and have stopped working. I guess my point is that while 200 strokes or more may seem excessive, it likely wouldn't matter that much to me considering how often I would actually have to use it.
