Limited Edition Silca Martini Racing Super Pista Ultimate Pumps Painted by Corby Concepts Available Today

Even if you have money sticking out of your ears out dumb you have to be to drop 900$ for a pump ?

Foolishness.

Get a nice Blackburn, Topeak, Specialized etc. pump for a hundred bucks if you really want to spend money then give the rest of your $grand to somebody that needs it.

That’s a high priced blow. Wow

I keep thinking that the reinvented Silca is leading off with halo product before they get back to the business of reclaiming market share with a well-made $100-150 floor pump for the legions of cyclists who remember when the name Silca was the standard by which everyone else was measured…..but I’ve been waiting a long time and I guess I should give up.

I’m kinda bored of bikes that are so excessively clever, so lavishly finished, and/or so eye-watering expensive that they don’t get ridden. Now we have a pump that’s so fancy it will get hung on a wall rather than used by hands stained with grease and honest sweat.

@Alex !

Hooray ! So we’re gonna see a trickle down 500$ version of it ? Can’t wait,really..

You are not buying a pump. What the paintwork is applied to is rather inconsequential. You are buying the artwork by Michael Corby, and at $900 it’s cheap artwork. If you actually want to use it to inflate tires then great, but I doubt many, if any, of the buyers will actually use it. To get both art and a no-expense-spared tool along with it is a great deal if you look at it this way.

And if someone does use this I bet it would last a lifetime. My last pump I had was an original Silca. After 10 years it was still going strong, sold it to a mate and 7 years later he still has it.
When I need a pump again I would buy a Silca.

And I will add I do think his helmets qualify as artwork.

all that and they still can’t put the gauge up high where it’d be easier to read? Maybe there’s a mechanical reason for this; my fancyass Lezyne that i got at a garage sale is set up this way too, but for this much money you’d think they could get around that.

If you want a qùality pump not made in Asia, the SKS Airmenius is fantastic! Do a Google search for reviews and you won’t find one that doesn’t rave about it. I have a 30-year old Silca track pump that I wanted to replace with a new Silca, but very disappointed that they have no options for anyone looking for a pump in the $150 range. I bought the SKS and it delivers.
