Zacoo Maha Floor Pump

• Intended use: General Shop use
• Models: Zacoo Maha II/III/IV

• Pump tilts towards the user providing unparalleled ergonomic comfort.

• CNC’d, Aluminium construct, Wooden handle ( Different models)
• Snap It: New Innovate Valve head

From the Manufacturer:
bigquotesZacoo Maha is an aluminum alloy pump with a high polished premium finish. Its size, 51 x 6 x 19 cm, combined with the Snap-It valve offers very strong selling points. The Maha is both Schrader and Presta compatible and can reach pressure of up to 220 psi. The Zacoo Maha also comes with outstanding design, the kind one came to expect from Birzman.


Innovative Snap-It Head:
bigquotesThe unique SNAP-IT is the ultimate secure valve connection. It opens up allowing fast and easy valve engagement of any Presta valve. Once engaged, two threaded bits clamp the valve securely on each side preventing blow off under high pressure. Made from aluminum and composite matrix.


Macha Shock Pump

• Intended use: Mountain
• Sleek, efficient design
• 2-stage, longer travel design increases efficiency and drives larger volumes of air.
• Pressure: Up to 300psi
• CNC’d, Aluminium construction
• Guage size: 1"
• Size: 24x2.5x3cm

From the Manufacturer:
bigquotesThe easy-to-read analog pressure gauge and pressure bleed button allows precise air pressure adjustments. The longer travel is designed to drive larger volumes of air and increase efficiency. The Air-Lock valve adaptor screws onto a threaded Schrader valve on the shock in one easy step and follows the same one step disconnecting method. The Air-Lock valve adaptor is designed to prevent air loss when disconnecting the valve from the shock. The Zacoo Macht offers a whole new experience in shock pump efficiency. The company's emphasis on quality makes many of their products appropriate for the general rider who values well designed tools to keep their bike running well all the time. Birzman offers tools and accessories that allow riders to ride with confidence in the knowledge that they have the optimum designed equipment to overcome any difficulty and to keep on riding.

 I do think their just blowing hot air - that said it could be a blast of fresh air in the industry - Joe Blow(s) anyway and is a little main(air)stream for me

 man these pump puns are blowing up! personally i dont think they are all that funny though, in reality, the humor has been overinflated.

 On a serious note looks a lot like Lezyne, hopefully the pump head is better quality though.

 Nice pumps.
One thing really brake my balls on Pink Bike!! The article that is new, instead of coming in the first position is mixed with old news!!! Why??? Just for the reader to stay searching for the real news? Or for the reader to loose the news??? A really dont understand that on Pink Bike. There is any tecnical motiv for that?

 I usually don't mind as there does seem to be a 'priority' list on the homepage which I understand (just like the bbc new site for instance) - hope about a news feed tape up top of the page PB so we can see flashes news style of the new article titles or significant milestones on images/videos such as say 1000 favourites? Just an idea, I wouldn't even begin to be able to tell anyone how to or if it was possible to code that!

 No enduro model, but they have a Black Diamond model they'll be releasing in time for the upcoming holiday season!

 I have a Birzman floor pump. That 'snap-it' head is not as secure as your normal rubber one. If the hose or valve isn't in the optimum position the head flops to the side and leaks air. The 'snap-it' head is very fast to get on and off, but it needs a little more improvement. I wouldn't buy another one, regardless of how pretty it is.

 "Optimum" position, not "Maximum". Say it in a French accent. Wink

 Who buys shock pumps? I think I have at least 10 shock pumps kicking around that were included with the new forks, frames and complete bikes I bought.
  • 4 0
 Unfortunately for people who buy Fox's stuff, they no longer are included with the forks.

 Psssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 So could you use the floor pump as a shock pump seeing as it goes to 220 psi?
  • 2 0
 No because the volume would be much too high. It's not just the max pressure. You can, however, fill a tire with a shock pump. It would just take a looooong time.

 Pink bike needs more serious articles on real innovation and bike goods. It is inundated with videos but it must be different than a Youtube imitator. Substance pls!

 Fill your tyres with helium and your DH bike will be lighter than your XC. Fill your Fat Tyre and you will be able to ride on water - LOL - I;m kidding of course!

 I always carry pumps, tubes, tools and co2 cartridges up my ass - extremely convenient if you have the room - but this design wont fit. I pass.
