Are superpistas for posers?

I bought one a few months ago and now I hardly using it, I only bought it cos it looks nice, what with that nice wooden handle.

It is a trackpump, get over it.

Poseurs.

great topic!

yes they are, apparently pumps are the new fixed gear.

thats a supernova not a superpista

Stick it outside your house and charge £1.oo for air.

Make your money back in no time.

That's a superb nova not a supernova and not a superpista

what's a superpista?

How can you ask that with a name like yours! Superpista

oooh nice! are they any good?

They're Super! ;)

They are awesome, spare parts are easy to get hold of. Don't listen to anyone who tells you they're simple though cos I looked at the diagram in the manual and my brain nearly exploded.

Just noticed this on that page

Silca pumps are serviceable in seconds. No tools are required for disassembly, and the few parts that wear out are easily replaceable.

"No tools are required for disassembly"? Bullshit! Allen key, screwdriver, spanner. These are 'tools' and they are required.

Ahhh.. it's a fucking Silca with a shit paint job!

Jeebus.. I was regaling the yoot about the benefits of Silca while you were an itch in your daddy's nutsack.. except I'd never be seen dead with one of those bastardised ones..

No, the superpista is a couple of inches bigger than the normal pista and with a wooden handle, its nowt to do with the paintjob, mine is black.

And I'm pretty sure there were people who regaled about the benefits of Silca way before you or your dad were itches in scrotums...

Not on this forum there weren't.

My Silca has a wooden handle.. and this one is what, a bit bigger?
Wow, saves your arms a pump.. extra energy for wanking.

So? What's your point? So you think you might be the first person on this forum to own a Silca, are we supposed to be impressed, do you want extra rep points or something?

You say that as if extra energy for wanking isn't a good thing.

My point was I thought it was something special and not just a repainted Silca*.

My doctor told me if I continue to wank at my current rate my wrist will require reconstructive surgery within months.

*now I know it's also slightly larger. I'm not exactly thrilled by all this news.

"No, the superpista is a couple of inches bigger than the normal pista and with a wooden handle, its nowt to do with the paintjob, mine is black."

So it's bigger, got wood and black - isn't that a racial stereotype!?

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to BigFatAl again :)

Look, all silcas are good, including the Terra and the minipump that looks like a woman's accessory. The only reason I said superpistas were 'awesome' is because that is the particular model that I happen to have bought.

"I bought one a few months ago and now I hardly using it, I only bought it cos it looks nice, what with that nice wooden handle."

Yeah, rave review..

Oh my god.

Please tell me you're not really this thick
