I have used Silca and more recently Topeak Master Blaster full frame pump and Blackburn Framepump. I liked the Topeak, but for whatever reason, it kept breaking down. I had two and got replacement parts from Topeak. Then I tried the Blackburn and wow, great pump! The Blackburn has a handle that rotates out and pumps really smoothly. It came in both a silver aluminum barrel and with a fancy "carbon" barrel. Note, I have one of each and the fancy "carbon" version is just plastic over aluminum. It also "feels" heavier than the aluminium barrel too! Unfortunately, Blackburn has discontinued the full size Framepump. What's available is probably NOS and of course, no replacement parts, errr!
