The most expensive pump on test and a good choice for the professional workshop.
It seems SKS has this kind of regular use in mind as it’s completely rebuildable, right down to a removable base to allow cleaning of the aluminium barrel.
The huge gauge mounted on the solid base reminded us of a good set of bathroom scales, with a large, clear display — particularly suitable for cyclists as it reads a little low!
The thick cork handles are comfortable and the connector, while a little plasticky, is easy to use and seals well.
