Pumps, mudguards and cages, made in Germany
SKS makes pumps, mudguards and accessories, and its products on this site share a habit of solving one specific problem well.
A mini pump, a road mudguard set, and the Anywhere Topcage bottle cage.
Designing around the awkward case. The SUPERSHORT mini pump has a removable tube that becomes a T-handle, which is what makes a 16.4 cm pump usable rather than merely small. The Anywhere Topcage mounts with straps on tubes up to 80 mm, which is the answer for a frame with no bottle bosses at all — a category no other cage in this catalog addresses.
Manufacturing in Germany, stated on almost all its products, with the parts availability that implies.
Published detail. The SPEEDROCKER mudguard set states a wheel size and very little else — no tire width clearance, which is the figure that actually decides whether a mudguard fits.
For mudguards, establish your frame’s tire clearance and ask the seller for the guard’s figure. For the pump, the reversible head has to be set for your valve type before use.
