The classic mini pump now faces competition from the battery-powered camp: The new SKS EMP weighs just 151 grams, inflates tires up to 8.3 bar, and stops automatically when the desired pressure is reached. A single battery charge is said to be enough for up to three tire inflations.

Schwalbe’s Clik Valve makes pumping a breeze—but it hasn’t yet achieved a major breakthrough. Now, pump specialist SKS could provide the decisive impetus.

Who hasn't been there: you go down to the cellar fully motivated and want to grab your bike for an after-work ride, only to find it has a flat tire. That's the end of the fun, it's time to get to work. Good products are needed to ensure that the repair is carried out quickly or that the puncture doesn't happen in the first place. We have tested five such products in line with this topic.

Digitalization has long since reached cycling - including at SKS. The company is now launching the MYBIKE app, a service-oriented software tool that can also navigate. SKS is also launching the Airspy: a sensor on the valve that sounds an alarm if the air pressure deviates.

From "Pleiten, Pech und Pannen" to "Upps! - Die Pannenshow" to YouTube and Instagram - millions of viewers enjoy breakdown clips. Especially those who look at their cell phone while cycling have a good chance of satisfying the schadenfreude of others. SKS now wants to put an end to this with the multifunctional "Compit" smartphone holder.

With the Airstep, SKS combines the virtues of a classic foot pump with state-of-the-art technology. The user-friendly pump has a large pressure gauge, an integrated storage space for the spiral hose and the MultiValve head for all valve types. The Airstep creates an effective pumping capacity of up to seven bar and can be stowed away afterwards to save space thanks to the wall bracket.
