I wanteded two mini-pumps, so I purchased both the Mini-DXG as well as the Mini-G models. The DXG is a little shorter, with slightly improved frame mounting, but general performance is the same. Both have a built-in pressure gage that works, but I don't expect it to be very accurate. Both pump air during IN and OUT strokes, which was much more difficult than a floor pump, but I plan to use these for emergencies only. Both frame-mounts will position the pump next to the bottle cage, using the same screws for the bottle cage. This was OK except when I bike with casual long pants, my pant cuffs would catch on the pump lever if mounted on the left side, and if mounted on the right side, it's too close to the bike chain. This is not a big deal because I just carry these in my bike bag, but I would've liked it much more if it would've just velcro-mounted to my top bar.

Small enough to keep on the bike without bothering, the pump is pretty bad tho. After 60 lbs of pressure. You have to use all your force to try to put more air. Soo imagine the struggle to get too 100 or more psi. but I guess if your stuck with a flat, This pimp can become a life saver.Best Deals for Topeak Mini DXG MasterBlaster Bike Pump
I've bought it because it is small, lightweight (170g), works with both presta and schrader,and because it has a pression gauge (which I think is very important).I've used it many times and it seems to be really robust, so I believe/hope it will last for a longtime.
Until 60 psi it's reall easy to inflate, and also it does it really fast (because it inflates when pushing AND when pulling). From 60 to 90 psi it begins to get REALLY hard... And after that is a pain in the ass! So if you need to put MORE than 100/110 psi I would NOT recommend it (that's why I rated it 4 stars instead of 5).
ps: I never used it mounted to the bike, so I cannot talk about it.
Honest reviews on Topeak Mini DXG MasterBlaster Bike Pump
This pump works great and I've had no difficulties pumping up my tires with it. I've had this pump for over 2 years and I've gotten quite a few minor flats out on trails and even commuting in city streets. Pump still works like new. I have a mountain bike with 26" tires and they're pretty damn thick (2.5"). So the folks who said this pump was "hard" are either weaklings or my forearm is just extra buff from all the... well, that's not the point. The point is, this pump is very compact (only 10" in length with handle pushed in) and it pumps air while both pushing and pulling the pump handle so it's fast! I didn't use the mount that came with this pump for my bike. Whenever I'm biking I have a backpack with my lock, drinks, wallet/ID, Green Slime, etc. and the pump fits in my pack nicely;it practically weighs nothing at all. I highly recommend this little pump!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Topeak Mini DXG MasterBlaster Bike Pump
Nothing worse than a small pump that takes forever to use when on a trail.The Mini DXG is the exception to the rule. I have had to use it twice and was pleasantly surprised how well it works with a 26inch mountain bike tire.
I cannot comment on the use with a road bike that requires a high pressure of 110lbs or more.
