Alternative to Zefal HPX-2

As best I can figure, someone stole my Zefal frame pump. It looks like it's been discontinued. The Zefal 88 is suggested as a replacement, but seems very inferior. Upon researching a replacement, I am discovering how nice my stolen pump was. Any suggestions for an alternative? I have a bike with an built in pump peg and would really like to use it.

Unfortunately the HPX in argent (silver) is no longer available in size 2. But you can get black and I think they have the gel handle,

Zefal & Topeak Bicycle Frame Pumps- For Road Bikes -at Yellow Jersey. Or Zéfal, if you will.

You can also try eBay for an HPX in size 2.

John

Edit Added: I also have the Topeak copy and it is pretty good, but not as good as a Zefal.

I wish I could offer to sell you one but I've only got two and will be holding on to them as long as I can now that they're no longer being sold.

On the Topeak Road Masterblaster. It is a matte silver aluminum. However, the sizes are all honked up since they are sold by bike frame size, not by actual pump usable length.

I found a website that gives the usable pump length:
S = 375mm to 425mm
M = 420mm to 475mm
L = 470mm to 525mm
XL = 520mm to 575mm

I can't vouch for the accuracy, but I know that I ended up mounting mine along the seat tube even though it was sold as 49cm to 54cm. That is based on bicycle frame size.

Silca has a frame fit pump again. Not cheap. Totally different, but cool, just not color co-ordinated.

Take a look through a local bike co-op if you have one. Frame pumps, including Zefal, tend to accumulate since not as many people use them now
