For this money, we would want a bit more than retro looks alone. The brass barrel may last longer than a corrosion-prone steel version, but a gauge reading that’s 8psi adrift is unforgivable. If you were to rely on this, fuel consumption and tyre wear would certainly suffer. It wasn’t even easy to use, as it was no more stable than much cheaper single-pump rivals.
