Silca pista plus floor pump review.
The silca pista plus is a sleek track pump with a nice tripod base wooden handle and a subtle gray paint job.
Over time the flap or ball degrades and that makes for a pump that will break down and be both less accurate and less efficient as the seal allows air back away from your gauge and tire back into the pump cylinder.
For travel and storage silca also offers the pista travel bag.
It is an iconic tool which cyclists have used for decades.
The silca pista floor pump is 99 and available at bike shops or direct from silca.
The durable steel barrel 3mm thick leather plunger piston design combined with our proprietary brass air bridge and check valve assembly ensure unrivaled longevity.
I jumped at the chance to replace my dying floor pump with their pista plus and i ve come away impressed with its quality finish and feel.

Pista plus floor pump.
Silca has been making bike pumps for quite a while you might say the company did turn 100 in 2017.
While at 90 it almost costs as much as the pista it features a padded spot for your pista and room and separate compartments for tubes tools bottles and nutrition.
Pretty much all other floor pumps eschew the mechanics and metal of the super pista and instead the check valve consists of a simple rubber ball or flap over a small hole.
The issue with this pump is its gauge.
