It works very well.

The HD model has a no-loss fitting so you lose no air when disconnecting it. Just a few pumps with the little gem puts your shocks right where you want 'em.

Basically, it's a hand held pump with an air gauge and pressure release valve attached. Screw pump end into shock air valve inlet and pump to desired pressure. To release air from shock, press the relief valve.

I agree. Just get the H-D pump.
