The Silca Super Pista was introduced as a higher volume alternative to the venerable Pista that many veteran cyclists still own. With modern higher volume tires, the need to move more air quicker is necessary and something that was lacking with the small volume/high-pressure Pista.

The Silca Super Pista has an oversized aluminum base for twice the stability over other designs.

Also, this pump has a first for Silca, a top-mount hose design with top mount magnetic chuck storage. This makes the chuck easier to reach and reduces back strain and eliminates bending over to access or store the chuck. As with the Ultimate pump, the SuperPista comes standard with its award-winning HIRO chuck. This full metal chuck was originally designed for ultra-high pressure track use, but mechanics have...
