I was looking at the lineup of Tufo tires, and some of them can take as much as 250 psi. How on earth can you inflate a tire to that kind of pressure with a lowly hand pump? It must take forever!

Use a Silca super pista pump.

The only people who would ever need to pump their tyres to that pressure would be track racers. A top-quality floor pump would be used.
