Air X-Plorer 10.0 Digi Floor Pump for SKS GERMANY

Over a Century of Quality in the Bicycle Industry

SKS, a distinguished manufacturer in the bicycle industry, has been keeping bikes rolling for over 100 years. The company's journey began in 1921 when Karl Scheffer-Klute of Sundern, Germany started producing curtain rods. In 1932, the business was acquired by Wilhelm Blome, who also purchased a tire inflator company, inspiring him to commence manufacturing metal pumps.

Today, SKS is renowned as a manufacturer of high-quality pumps, bicycle fenders, and a wide range of accessories, including bike pumps, fenders, bags, tools, digital pressure gauges, bottle cages, cage adapters, and phone holders. All SKS products are designed and produced in Sundern, Germany, with a commitment to continuous innovation and the delivery of exceptional cycling accessories.

Driving the Future of Cycling

SKS Germany employs 400 people at its bicycle headquarters in Sundern, with a total workforce of over 700 across its three divisions. The company's bicycle business is divided, with 43% coming from aftermarket product sales and 32% from OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) products.

Annually, SKS Germany produces an impressive array of cycling essentials: 4.5 million full fenders, 2 million clip-on fenders, and 1.2 million bicycle pumps. This translates to over 18,000 fenders and 3,200 pumps manufactured daily, showcasing the company's dedication to meeting the growing demand for high-quality cycling accessories.

Revitalizing the Classics

In 2022, SKS revamped its full fender line, replacing the classic Chromoplastic Longboard and Commuter II models with the new Bluemels and Bluemels Style fenders. Both feature the same chromoplastic fender material, but the Bluemels now come with black hardware and are available in a wider range of sizes.

The Bluemels Style fenders boast a distinctive square profile design, double U Stay technology, a matte black finish, and a sleek, flexible spoiler on the front and rear fender. This innovative approach demonstrates SKS's commitment to evolving its product offerings while preserving the quality and durability that have made the brand a trusted name in the cycling community.

Keeping Riders Dry and Comfortable

SKS's comprehensive range of cycling accessories, all made in Germany, ensures that riders can stay dry and comfortable in any weather. From fenders and floor pumps to mini pumps, air pressure gauges, bike bags and racks, phone holders, tools, and bottle cages, SKS has the parts and accessories to keep cyclists rolling, no matter the conditions.

With a focus on innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction, SKS continues to lead the way in the bicycle industry, providing riders with the essential gear they need to enjoy their cycling journeys, now and for years to come.
