Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant combines the power of carbon fibre with a long lasting natural latex formula to achieve sealing properties beyond that of special race day formulas, while matching or exceeding the life expectancy of long-lasting formulas.The key is a high percentage fill of recycled, chopped carbon fibre strands which are held in suspension by the foaming action of the sealant within the tire. Upon puncture, the sealant rushes to escape the hole, carrying thousands of carbon filaments which serve to dam up the opening, just like sticks of a beaver dam blocking a stream. This dam of fibre collects more fibre and what was one large hole, is now turned into hundreds of smaller holes for the sealant to seal. Fiberfoam technology has proven to seal up to 7.5mm holes and cuts at gravel pressures and up to 5mm holes at higher road pressures. Even better, the carbon fibre/latex plug formed at the puncture has proven to be more than twice as strong over time as latex only or latex with crystals or glitter. While most sealants claim they can plug holes up to 6+mm, they can also be injected into the tyre through the 3mm hole in your valve stem with some injectors using tips as small as 2mm. The power of carbon fibre makes this impossible, Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant will instantly plug your injection syringe or your valve as the fibres stack up to block the opening. In solving this issue, the Silca team has developed Ultimate Tubeless Sealant into a system that will save you time and money in the long run. The initial installation of Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant must be done by pouring into the tyre cavity rather than injecting through the valve. However, unlike other sealants which must be completely replaced every 3-6 months, Silca Ultimate Tubeless Sealant has a special Replenisher which can be pumped through the valve and can extend the sealant life to well over 1 year depending on your climate. This means less wasted sealant, and less hassle over time as there is no need to remove the old sealant at each service interval, in many cases, the sealant may outlast the tyre.
The italian army knife, a very silca take on the traditional multi-tool. We've addressed the things that frustrate us with conventional multi-tools, while keeping the layout which fits so conveniently in the silca eolo wallet or seat roll premio.The iak as we have come to know and love this product combines fully forged mid-length tools with forged aluminium side plates and full stainless-steel hardware. The mid-length tool design is long enough to provide access to recessed fasteners, but short enough not to experience twist or damage under moderate torque as experiences on longer tools. All tools are forged rather than bent from hex stock, this method of construction is more expensive, but worth it on the side of the road!Mid length tools also allow us to position the tools within the same plane, this reduces the thickness of the overall package by half. Double chromed tools and fully stainless-steel hardware and bushings guarantee a long life without corrosion (the number 2 killer of multi-tools is corrosion, number 1 is loss!)Forged aluminium sidebars contain rare-earth magnets for holding a spare chain connector.
The Silca Italian Army Knife Venti (multi-tool) the ultimate in functionality, durability and ergonomics, the Italian Army Knife Venti builds on a flat design, forged mid-length tools and stainless-steel hardware of our award-winning Italian Army Knifes, while adding new tools including the most ergonomic and functional chain breaker ever featured on a portable multi-tool. Italian for twenty, the Venti packs 20 high precision, hardened steel tools into an incredibly compact space through a very unique layout and design.The unique magnetic slide-lock design of the Venti chain tool allows it to be more than twice as long as other designs for improved ergonomics in use, while also allowing it to be removed completely from the tool for improved usability. The forged mid-length tools are long enough to reach all cycling fasteners, but not so long that they twist or deform under load. The ergonomic side plates also hold a secret magnetic storage feature for a spare master link. All tools are coated with Silca’s unique high-grip chrome plating which provides better torque transfer at the bolt interface.Key FeaturesMetal injection sidebars with knurled grip surface and stainless steel hardware,Forged chain breaker for 10-12 Speed,Magnetic Storage for 10-12 speed compatible chain connectors,Hex 2/2.5/3/4/5/6/8,Torx 8/10/20/25,PH2/SL4,7mm Box Wrench,8mm Flare nut wrench 10mm open end wrench Disc pad Spreader,Valve Core Remover,Spoke Wrenches 13G/15G,Weight: 172g.
Ultra-premium levers optimized for carbon rimsModern carbon rims and tires create a real challenge for traditional tire levers, and the new wave of tubeless setups have take the challenge to the next level. Tire fits are tighter than they've ever been, while carbon rims require non-metal levers to resist damage to the bead or brake surface during use.Previous solutions to this problem have involved using a metal core inside of a plastic lever, however this solution has its own challenges as the core of the lever is where you can add the least stiffness and strength. This leaves metal core levers both less stiff and heavier than they need to be.Tire levers premio, pair a high strength forged aluminium lever with a semi-rigid nylon pad on the rim side of the lever only. This allows the overall lever to be thinner, yet stiffer and stronger than either full plastic or metal core designs. Even better, tire levers premio utilize a designed in flex-core zone which allows the nylon pad to conform to the curvature of the rim during use for maximum distribution of load.Due to the high strength full-metal blade, tire levers premio are 25-30% narrower than other lever designs, making them ideal for very tight tires and tubeless setups where access to the tire bead is very tight.Key Features:Forged alloy blade,Reinforced nylon rim shield safe for use on carbon rims,Integrated spoke-hook wing,105mm x 25mm x 7mm (perfect for seat roll premio or eolo wallet),Net weight (two levers and neoprene sleeve) = 36 grams.

The Silca TRUTH Pressure Gauge, originally hand-built by Josh Poertner himself, lives up to its name by giving highly accurate and repeatable pressure readings. That's because this USA-made digital gauge not only compensates for temperature and humidity, but also eliminates the parallax error common to analogue readings. Its four-digit display and calibration to 30 psi lead to a guaranteed accuracy of 0.2% at 0-60 psi and 0.5% at 100 psi.Featuring a 3D printed titanium body, a medical grade stainless steel connection, a protective silicone rubber housing and a valve connection port that uses a Silca 252 Chuck, the TRUTH Gauge requires minimal air to activate and only loses 0.1 psi per reading in a 25mm tyre at 100 psi, making it far more efficient than competitor designs.Run on a 9V battery that gives an impressive 1,200 hours of battery life, the easy-to-use gauge has proven its stripes with more than a 100 WorldTour Victories and five Paris Roubaix wins since 2010, making it a must-have for serious racers and casual riders alike.Key features:Digital pressure gauge,Precise +/- 1% full scale accuracy at 200 psi,Compensates for temperature and humidity,Connection made from 316L stainless steel,6AL/4V 3D printed titanium body and airway,Aluminium twist-style bleed valve,High impact silicone rubber protective housing,Auto shut-off after 20 minutes, 1,200-hour battery life,9V battery included but not connected,Weight 221g,Presta compatible only,Made in the USA.
Since 1917 all Silca pumps have used steam pressure-formed leather cup washers to achieve high pressures. The 731 (formally 73.1) is the classic 28mm diameter washer used on pumps produced between 1917 and 2008. In 2008, Pista and SuperPista pumps moved from steel barrels with 28mm inner diameter, to aluminium barrels with 30mm diameter. The 741 (formally 74.1) Leather Washer fits all 2008 and later pumps with 30mm inner diameter.Since the 1960's all SILCA leather washers have come from the same leather converting house in the fashion district of Milan, Italy. For more than 5 decades the same supplier has cut these washers from the excess material left over from the production of exotic handbags, Italian luxury cars interiors, and high-fashion luggage. A small press is used to hand cut and then pressure form these washers from pieces of leather otherwise sent to the trash. Silca receives these parts by the hundred and it is always fun to sift through them looking at the various finishes and textures while thinking about the exotic sports car interior, $2000 briefcase, or handcrafted luggage sets from which they share history.From a purely functional standpoint, inexpensive o-rings are most commonly used in this application, but no o-ring can match the smooth feel and zero-stiction action of a leather gasket. It is common today to find Silca leather gasket pumps throughout the professional peloton (especially during the spring classics) as o-ring seal pumps struggle with heat and often are unable to seal once the pump barrel is hot from inflating more than a few wheels.Key Features731 Fits 28mm internal diameter Pista and Super Pista pumps (pre-2008),741 Fits 30mm internal diameter Pista and Super Pista pumps (post-2008),Made from finest quality full grain leather,Produced by hand on the same equipment continuously since 1960,NEW! Updated from 2.25 to 2.50mm thick leather for improved durability,Handcrafted in Milan, Italy.
The Silca SuperPista Digital Floor Pump addresses the only issues that the traditional track pumps cant achieve. Easy to gauge pressure - the gauge is mounted high up, it's also illuminated and you get an audio alarm making the SuperPista Digital Floor Pump much easier to monitor accurate tyre pressuresThis third generation Silca SuperPista combines all of the handcrafted elements which have made SuperPista the go-to pump of the ProTour for more than 30 years, with our two most mechanic and consumer requested features: a high accuracy digital gauge, and gauge readout located at the top of the barrel for easier reading.Built more like a suspension fork than a traditional pump, the SuperPista combines a full metal shock piston design with the classic Italian leather plunger washer and German Igus linear bearings to create the highest efficiency, smoothest running SuperPista to date. The oversized aluminium base provides more than 2x the stability of other designs while still being optimized for use with cycling shoes. The lathe turned Ash handle is a geometric copy of the SuperPista Ultimate handle and provides the ultimate in comfort and ergonomics.A first for SILCA pumps, the SuperPista also utilizes a top-mount hose design with top mount magnetic chuck storage. This puts the chuck right at the hands of the user reducing back strain and eliminates bending over to access or store the chuck. As with the Ultimate pump, the SuperPista now comes standard with the multi-award winning HIRO chuck. This full metal chuck was originally designed for ultra-high pressure track use, but mechanics have since found that they prefer it for its compact size, adjustability, and extreme holding ability on all valve and valve extension designs.

With the introduction of the pocket impero last season and the amazing reviews it received as a 'mini-pump that actually works' and 'a mini-pump so sweet you might look forward to flatting' (bicycling magazine), silca became inundated with requests for a frame mount pump 'that actually works'.10 months of development later and they've created tattico, a 'tactical' mini-pump designed to be large enough to work well, while being small enough in footprint that it can nearly disappear alongside a bottle cage on your high-end bike. The tattico is also the first silca portable pump since the 1950's to use a hose.Silca have cleverly positioned the hose inside the inner barrel where it is able to slide in and out of the end of the pump without being removed or having to thread in place. The hose attaches with a compression gasket activated by a small aluminium lever. In classic silca fashion, the compression gasket it reversible for presta or schrader.
