Silca was founded in Milan in 1917 by Felice Sacchi — supplying race teams with pumps, inventing the first gauge-equipped floor pump, and designing the Pista in 1962 at the direct request of Fausto Coppi’s mechanics. Three generations of the Sacchi family ran the company before Claudio Sacchi sold it in 2013. New owner Joshua Poertner moved headquarters and manufacturing to Indianapolis, Indiana in 2014 and reimagined Silca as a full premium accessories brand: the same obsessive standards for quality and precision, applied to chain lubes, waxes, tubeless products, bags, and tools alongside the pumps that started it all.

RA Cycles stocks the complete Silca lineup. The Superpista anchors the collection — available in the Digital ($349) and Hiro Edition ($495) builds — alongside the Pista Plus ($199) and Terra ($139). The Elettrico electric pumps ($129–$159) handle on-the-go inflation. For drivetrain care, the Super Secret Chain Lube and Ultimate Graphene Spray Wax cover waxing and lubrication, with chain stripping kits rounding out the maintenance range. Tubeless riders will find the Ultimate Sealant, Sealant Remover, and Replenisher Injector. The Grinta Roll Top Saddle Bag and Premio Tire Levers round out the accessories.
