Terra Floor Pump

The Terra Floor Pump is the pump I’ve been waiting for. I don’t need a pump with a 200 psi capability, I need a pump that accurately pumps up my gravel and road bike tires, so a max of around 80 psi for me. The pressure gauge is brilliant: it’s large and with a max readout of about 110 psi, it has finer resolution that’s easy to read and easy to pump to your desired pressure within 1 psi. I was worried about the pump head, but I functions perfectly on presta valves. It pops off quickly with zero air loss, so you know your final gauge reading is what’s in your tire. The pump also agrees perfectly with my digital air gauge which makes me feel more confident about the accuracy of both, although I would trust the Silca gauge more had they not agreed. I even like the color scheme of the pump. I have no doubt about the durability and longevity of the pump (they’re so easy to service anyway), so there’s not any small niggle I can make about this item: it’s 5 stars all the way in my book.

Nice pump and accurate gauge…suits all my inflation needs from road to MTB. The locking chuck works well but is a little stiff to operate. It would be nice if the pump head was held to the barrel in such a way that it doesn’t scratch so easily. Overall quite happy with it though.

We've been running no more than 65 (ish)PSI in any bicycle tire (road, mtb, gravel) for many years now, so our older pump with the standard gauge reading up to 220 was...I won't say worthless, but it wasn't terribly helpful either particularly with mountain bike tire pressures. I love the two stage gauge and how big the numbers are in general compared to my old pump. Whether it's knowing that a 2.4 mountain tire is actually 20 PSI, a 35c gravel tire is 48, or a 28c road tire is 58, I'm much more confident that the pressures are what the gauge says they are. With my old standard pump, each of those pressures was always a close guess at best. The pump seems well made and uses very limited plastic which I like from both a longevity standpoint and an environmental standpoint. A great pump that should serve us well for many years to come!

I have owned a Silca floor pump since the mid-80's but decided to give this version a try. The lightweight construction gives the impression that the unit may not be as sturdy as other old Silca models that were steel, but in use it does not feel delicate. The pumping action is positive and actually much smoother than my old unit. The gauge lives up to the promised level of accuracy. Checked against an Accu-Gage it was dead on. The bleed button is easy to use but the locking lever is not quite as ergonomic as I hoped. Although it's a beefed up version of what's on the Tattico, the lever is somewhat awkward to engage. Properly locked there's no discernible leaking when pumping. Overall I really like the pump. Given the recent recognition of the benefits of lower tire pressures, having an extremely accurate gauge for those lower pressures is quite handy.
