Mini Electric Tire Pumps

Equipment

I use the Bosch Easy Pump Cordless Air Pump | Merlin Cycles for travelling, races etc. Works brilliantly.

Another satisfied customer for this, although I cut the end off and installed a presta/schrader double end on it instead.

I have one of these, and put a prestacycle head on it. So good, battery lasts forever and the gauge lines up with the digital gauge Iā€™d been using. Not going to fit in a jersey pocket though!

I lloked at a couple and reviews this:

Fanttik S100 Apex at Costco for $39.99

28

Itā€™s not mini, but certainly smaller than a track pump, but I used this all race season, and great for travel too. Itā€™s really enough to convince me for a mini one, once Iā€™m out of CO2.

29

I also got lured in by the Syd and Macky endorsement. No regrets. For gravel and MTB top ups, Iā€™m surprised with how few times Iā€™ve needed to charge it. I rarely use my track pump anymore. Super simple for less mechanically inclined riders in the family to top up their own tires also. The only downside is that it doesā€™t work awesome with tubeless if your valves are clogged because it thinks that it has reached pressure before it does. But I bought a big bag of presta cores and replace them frequently to avoid this issue.

30

They now include a tool for your valve stem. Itā€™s pretty slick.

Has anyone tried the Cyclami electric pump on AliExpress? It looks like an exact copy of the Cycplus. Iā€™m looking at the A2 Plus (essentially the Cycplus AS2 Pro) and willing to give it a shot for use in the garage since itā€™s so cheap. Iā€™m really just looking for a lazy version of a floor pump to top off my tires before each ride. I have a compressor but wanted something quicker, easier, quieter, and with a PSI gauge.

32

All the mini pumps more or less work well and are quite similar and cheap to get off Ali. My only recommendation is to charge the night before just to make sure it isnā€™t losing power over days/weeks of sitting in your saddle bag.

Iā€™ve got the AS2 Pro, I donā€™t use it all that much but I do carry it daily. I need to start testing it to see how well itā€™s holding a charge. Maybe Iā€™ll start trying to see how many tires I can fill before Iā€™m going to recharge it and see if how well itā€™s holding a charge. It is getting colder here and Iā€™ve wondered how it will do battery wise in colder temperatures. I could store it somewhere warmer but I like leaving all of that stuff in my car where most of my rides start so that I donā€™t forget anything.

I still prefer a track pump for before I leave to ride, even with an industrial compressor in the shop.

Looking at adding the AS2 Pro. Curious about storageā€¦jersey pocket or saddle bag? And if saddle bag what size is needed?

35

I put my AS2 pro in an essentials pouch (pedal mafia) along with a tpu tube, tyre levers and a multi tool. All that goes in my jersey pocket. Works well for me.

Hi all,

So, as per the title. Iā€™d like to get myself an electric pump. I like my morph g, serves me well but for a lot of rides (short) Iā€™d quite like to just stick an electric pump in a saddle bag and forget about it.

Anyone use one? Like it? Recommend it?

Using winter bike at the mo, so low pressure tubeless

37

I think any electric pump requires periodic recharging even if not used, no? For this reason I still have CO2 as my on-bike inflation. I have a nice Makita battery powered mini-compressor that I use for in-garage inflation and a Fumpa that I use for travel though, both are quite handy.

38

Oh totally will need charging, but then so does my GoPro, my power pedals and all my other crap I take with me :laughing: so no hardship to charge before a ride

I moved yours under the existing one shared in your original post.

My AS2 Pro lives in the saddle bag. For a size comparison, it takes about as much room as 2 16g CO2 cartridges and a filler head.

Bought the Fanttik last week.,ā€¦would not inflate a tire at all. When attached to a the valve, nothing happened and it read the tire pressure as 0.

Promptly returned. Would not recommend.

The Cycplus AS2Pro is amazing and a big upgrade from the Fumpa. Lighter, smaller, plus the integrated pressure gage.
