Such thing as a BIFL floor pump? (lemmy.ca)

Hey guys,

So... I've been using a small electric pump for my bikes and e-scooters over the last few years.

They are nice, but really aren't designed to be used as often as I do.

I'm a fan of low-tech gear, so I'm looking for a good quality floor pump that will last the next 20+ years. Obviously, it needs to be serviceable and have easily replaceable parts. And it needs to be accurate, for sure. LOL

I'm reading reviews from Wirecutter and various cycling sites, and they are all over the place with recommendations. I think a lot of their choices are driven by affiliate links, so there's that.

Does this unicorn exist?

I think Silca is what you want. But I don’t know if you want to pay for it :D

Yeah, their prices are like <$100 to $800! LOL But the highest end ones have a pretty robust lifetime warranty.

I've been looking at their pumps because they have some pretty good black friday deals right now.
