Review on 🚲 Rennkompressor SKS Floor Pump by Mike West

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Doesn't work at all

Edited to 4 stars: The company sent me a replacement head and it works great with everything but the slick presta valves. Threaded Presta valves are fine, smooth valves don't provide enough friction for this pump. I love that spare parts are available for the pump which means it could be a pump that lasts forever - something I've been looking for for ten years. I'm a bike mechanic in need of a new home pump. The box arrived in 4 parts in a UPS carton, there are no instructions and the pump head simply deflates all the air from your presta valve. If you try to fill the tube with air, it just blows over the valve stem. You can easily remove the pump without flipping a switch. There's no chance of it sealing around the stem as it doesn't stretch at all. I can't believe I have to return this absolute piece of rubbish. And now I have a flat tire and no pump. I'm dying to buy a lifetime pump, but this one doesn't work on day one!

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Zero
