My topeak master blaster claims to pump up to 160psi. I have pumped up my 100 psi tires with the
topeak and past 100 it gets harder to pump. I have even had the air chuck pop off the valve stem
after going past
100. Question---- Has anybody been able to pump up a 145psi tire to 145psi using a frame pump?

place (or maybe some kind of a strap?). Another hand is needed to stabilize the pump, even on hard
floor it won't keep straight when pumping hard, the base is just way too small.I managed to pump my Stelvios to 120 psi. If I had 145 psi tyres I'd definitely try. BTW the Road
Morph probably does a better job in that...--
