60 Years of RENNKOMPRESSOR
60 Years of RENNKOMPRESSOR
A legend celebrates its birthday
Congratulations: the RENNKOMPRESSOR turns 60! To mark this anniversary, we are honouring our cult product with a special edition that combines the character of the original with a unique design. Celebrate a legend made in Germany with us!
Strong presence
The solid steel tube and cast base come in a striking industrial style, while brass elements create an elegant contrast. The robust raw materials give the pump its unmistakably steadfast appearance.
Craftsmanship you can feel
The rustic handle made from real wood emphasises the classic workshop look and feels comfortable in the hand when pumping. As a natural material, the wooden handle conveys both warmth and value. This is what tradition feels like.
Numbered piece of history
The limited, numbered brass plaque with an embossed nostalgic SKS star makes every pump unique. The retro star was used as the SKS logo in the 1970s. A homage to our own brand history.
Tradition meets modern valve technology
The pre-mounted SV valve connector made from brass is inspired by the historical model from the 1960s. Two additional pump heads are also included: MV EASY for SV, AV and DV valves, as well as the SKS CLIK TEC head for the Schwalbe Clik Valve.
Less wrapping, more attitude
In keeping with the raw design, the RENNKOMPRESSOR60 is supplied in an open, environmentally friendly cardboard box. Recyclable materials ensure that the packaging matches the authentic appearance.
Secure your limited edition and bring home a piece of cycling history.
