Thanks for any input.
I used to run CO2 until I got 4 flats in a single ride. Then I switched to a pump until I had the seal fail on me. Now I carry both.

Your concern about size vs function is valid, as I have had pumps that seem to take forever. I carry a Pro Bike Tool "Mini Floor Pump" on the tandem because it works well, but it is a little large. Makes me wonder if the same brand's "Classic" would be a good compromise, but I have also seen excellent reviews for the Lezyne which is the same price. I guess what I'm saying is, I'm just here to see what others say about the Lezyne or other brands.
