Our "Rider Review" article series features the honest reviews from verified purchasers of Worldwide Cyclery. They contain the photos, thoughts, feedback & overall review you are looking for. 

There are plenty of tools to choose from when it comes to maintaining your bike. For some people, any old shock pump will do the job but having a good pump makes the task much easier. Our friend Anthony shares his experience with the Fox Factory High-Pressure Digital Shock Pump. Check it out!

Overview

The Fox Factory High-Pressure Digital Shock Pump is a HUGEEEE upgrade over my past one that had the old school circular pressure gauge where it was always a pain to get the PSI right and really get the detail needed. With this device, you can dial the PSI to 0.5 PSI and they also did a great job making it easy to release some pressure using the conveniently located release button that doesn't let out pressure too fast.

When you're spending $1000+ on your suspension, it makes sense to get your PSI to a more exact measurement than you can get with other shock pumps. I don't typically ride with this pump but it could easily fit into a small backpack/camelback but it may be a bit too long for a fanny (it's 11.4 inches long when fully compressed).

Final Thoughts 

This Fox pump has been everything I had hoped it would be and I anticipate the battery lasting a long time as it has an auto-off feature. Has a solid feel to it. One note for use (my understanding is that this is the case for all shock pumps): When ATTACHING a valve, you lose PSI so you shouldn't use attaching a shock pump and getting a reading of where your shock is at. When REMOVING a valve, there is not a decrease in shock PSI.

Happy Shredding 🤘
