I have the Birzman Tiny Tanker - same weight as the Lezyne Travel pump - https://amzn.to/2I9VpYp this is a 2lb 1/2size pump that could replace your normal floor pump. I didn't care for the pump head (the pump/twist jobby), but it's world better than the one on the Lezyne which my neighbor has. The Lezyne will remove the valve core even if you know it will try to. I put the normal lezyne pump head on mine. This size pump might be able to seat a very easy to seat tubleless tire.
At this size/weight, theres also the Topeak Transformer RX with the built in bike holder.

Smaller, there's the .5lb Topeak Road Morph https://amzn.to/3cgTDCY and the Bontrager version, the Lezyne Micro drive, and this one https://amzn.to/2VvN2OM This size pump is mostly OK for desperate situations and when you just want to add a bit more air.

Anything smaller and you'll hate life. Just ride a flat tire.

If you need to dissassemble your bike, I recommend one of these Caddy version ( https://amzn.to/2uEE7jh ) ; Buick ( https://amzn.to/2I2zsKO ); Scooter ( https://amzn.to/2PxiI2q )
