SKS marks 60 years of the Rennkompressor with a limited edition
The floor pump first built in the Sauerland in 1966 gets a numbered anniversary series with an industrial look, the Rennkompressor60.
German maker SKS is marking sixty years of the Rennkompressor in 2026, a floor pump designed in 1966 by its works manager Walter Scheffer for road racers. Still made in the Sauerland, it has become one of the brand’s signature products.
To celebrate, SKS is offering the Rennkompressor60, a limited edition. It pairs a steel barrel and cast-iron base with brass details and a wooden handle. Each pump carries a numbered brass plate stamped with the star SKS used as its logo in the 1970s.
It ships with a brass Presta push-on chuck modelled on the 1960s original, plus two extra heads: MV EASY for Presta, Schrader and Dunlop valves, and the CLIK TEC head for Schwalbe’s Clik valve. Packaging is an open, recyclable cardboard box. No price was given in the announcement.
