Easy Pump Head for SKS GERMANY MV

SKS: Over a Century of Quality in the Bicycle Industry

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

Today, SKS is renowned for its production of high-quality bicycle pumps, fenders, and a wide range of cycling accessories, including bags, tools, digital pressure gauges, bottle cages, cage adapters, and phone holders. All SKS products are designed and manufactured in Sundern, Germany, where the company continues to innovate and produce the highest quality cycling accessories.

A Thriving Global Presence

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

The scale of SKS's manufacturing capabilities is impressive, with the company producing 4.5 million full fenders, 2 million clip-on fenders, and 1.2 million bicycle pumps annually. This equates to over 18,000 fenders and 3,200 pumps produced every day.

Revamping 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 models are made using the same chromoplastic material, but the Bluemels now feature black hardware and are available in a wider range of sizes.

The Bluemels Style fenders boast a square profile design, double U Stay technology, a matte black finish, and a sleek, flexible spoiler on the front and rear fender. SKS continues to be a leader in clip-on fender options, providing riders with a comprehensive range of commuting essentials.

Keeping You Riding No Matter What

SKS's product portfolio encompasses a diverse array of components and accessories to ensure riders can keep pedaling no matter the conditions. The company's fenders, floor pumps, mini pumps, air pressure gauges, bike bags, racks, phone holders, tools, bottles, cages, and adapters are all designed to help cyclists stay dry and comfortable, whether they're commuting or embarking on recreational rides.

The brand's commitment to quality is evident in the technical specifications of its products, such as the 230 psi maximum pressure compatibility across all SKS Germany Floor Pumps, compatibility with presta/schrader/dunlop valves, and the rocker technology that prevents stuck check valves and whistling.

As SKS continues to innovate and evolve, the company's unwavering dedication to providing cyclists with the highest quality accessories and a seamless riding experience remains at the core of its mission. With over a century of expertise and a global presence, SKS is poised to keep bikes rolling for generations to come.
