Heya guys,

I'm looking to get a super high pressure floor pump (260psi) off ebay. There is one by Giyo for $45 and there is a 2nd hand Silca for the same price. I'm not too sure about what the Silca's pressure is but I'm thinking it's 240psi. I know that Silca pumps are that well made that it'll outlast me but what does everyone else think?

I've had a bit of trouble looking for the model of Silca pump and it doesn't say whats the max psi on the ebay page. I've given the owner a buzz about it. If the pump is 260psi like the Giyo, I'll def get the Silca just because they are that well made and everything is replaceable.

it would probley go with the silca pump. the gauge is 210psi than I think it would go a fair bit over that and as you said if it breaks you don't need to buy a brand spanking new pump.
