need advice on pumps

Hello all,

I have been reading this forum for a wile know, but have never posted before.I think the info and knoledge a lot of you have is increadable. I was hoping that you would help me out on deciding wich pump is the right one?and were to get it from? I know the bib has his own hanger, so I wasn’t sure if any of you have your own pump brand that is better then what is out there.

I read the posts that bigmac8 posted and he uses a pump that will let him use water. do all pumps do that?

if you can help me out, that would be great.

Did you read the Pumping 101 thread? What is your current size? That will be the determining factor. I bought the La Pump It is very nice. Do a search, there was a pump that looked just like the LA sold in the harbor freight catalog. You would just need to buy a tube then.

The pump I always recommend is this deluxe pump from lapdist: All Products | LA Pump

If you are going to pump, I also recommend you always buy a pump with a gauge and pumps with gauges cannot be used with water.

If you let me know your erect length and girth I can help with your cylinder size. The pump manufacturers always tend to recommend one size too small.

I am currently 6 inches long and 5 inches around mid shaft

after all the pumps I have looked at and read about, they all begin to blur together. thank you for your advice.
let me thank you in advance for helping me decide which tube to get. thanks gprent.

nonstock2001-thank you, for your help. I think I would like to buy everything from one place. may be when I have more experience I will feel More comfortable with mixing and matching.

Nygainer,

I think you should start off with a 9” X 1.75” cylinder.
