Seeking an old Brompton Zefal pump

I have had the same Brompton for 16 years. A few weeks ago, the inevitable finally happened, when the small Zefal pump that originally came with it, detached itself from the frame, and was missing in action. I went into my local dealership for a replacement and found that the current Zefal pump that comes with Bromptons does not fit onto my 2006 model. The new one is a few millimetres too big, and cannot be persuaded to sit between the two supports.
Does anybody know of any shops or other organisations that can source the earlier, smaller version of the pump? I have tried Brompton themselves, but they have just said they no longer stock them, and advised me to try a forum such as this one.
Many thanks in advance,
Joe

Dude!

I wish I saw this a year ago, as I gave my old one away!

I've found the lezyne one to be greatly superior. Lee Valley also has an excellent clone that works for $16

Here's the Lee Valley clone. it's the same size as the small Lezyne pressure drive I have on my Brompton, and works about as well.

Thanks for this. Really helpful. I have since bought a Lezyne small pump, intending to do something similar

Brompton Pump: I have one for sale, but really, the Lyzyne route seems better and you could always slap a Brompton sticker on it if you think it needed one.
