What makes a Silca pump so special?
There are some rituals in cycling that never change.
Eighty ago, you put on your cycling shoes, pumped up your tires with
your Silca pump, and went. Today, you put on
your cycling shoes, helmet and sunglasses, pump up your tires with your Silca pump, and go. The sound of a Silca pump pushing air into a tire is
as intimately associated with cycling as the click of the chain moving
from cog to cog.
When Felice Sacchi founded Silca in 1917, little did he know that his
company would not only still be going strong in the next millennium, but
that it would also still be run by his grandson,
Claudio Sacchi. Keeping with the family
tradition, Claudio Sacchi makes sure that the family-run company still
delivers the best
and most durable floor pumps using a series of innovations to keep Silca products fresh.
Take,
for example the extra long Super Pista, the most powerful ever made
and the first choice among track riders as well as road riders for its
high pressure capability. The Super Pista inflates any tire quickly, with a minimum of
strokes. Silca also continues to make parts for the older models.
This is rarity in our throwaway society,
but is key to Silca’s sterling
reputation for durability and serviceability.
Silca pumps are serviceable in seconds. No tools
are required for
disassembly, and the few parts that wear out are easily
replaceable. The
leather piston cup in the Pista, for example, needs only an occasional
dab of grease to keep it lubricated and pumping, and the rubber seal in
the brass head is similarly easy to service.
If you want the best pump and don’t want to keep buying pumps year after
year, there is only one choice for you: Silca. Beautiful Italian styling
is the bonus.
