This gives us the ability to drastically reduce shipping timelines and cost.
Most of the brand’s catalog is already in stock, including AUS Plug Silca Ultimate Chain Waxing Systems…

Eight Years Later: Silca SuperPista Ultimate Hiro Rebuild
Back in 2015, I bought one of the first Silca SuperPista Ultimate Hiro pumps. These pumps are a modern take on the vintage classic SuperPista floor pump Silca made back when it was an Italian brand in the 70s and 80s. Now, Silca is a US brand and when it re-launched, they debuted a stunning Made in the USA version of the SuperPista pump.
When I bought it, the pump was dubbed the Impero Ultimate Frame Pump and with a $400 price tag, I was hoping it’d last for decades, much like Silca’s legendary frame pumps that I use on my bikes. Well, eight years later my pump finally needed a rebuild, so I thought it’d be nice to walk through the rebuild process…
