CYCPLUS AS2 Pro / AS2 Pro Max Electronic Tire Inflation Pumps Review - feat. Aluminum Body + Screen
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 сер 2024
- Portable electronic bike inflators are one of the latest trends in cycling as they combine small form factors with battery powered pumps to inflate tires on the go. CYCPLUS has taken their compact AS2, which was formerly branded as the Cube, and added and developed the Pro series. We have both the $109 AS2 Pro and the $129 AS2 Pro Max which both feature larger batteries and LED screens with pressure gauges to improve usability. The main difference between the two models is that the Pro has a 420 mAh battery while the Pro Max has a larger 600 mAh battery. Both the pumps are also compatible with Schrader and Presta valves by using the included adapters.
CYCPLUS has taken their compact AS2, originally the Cube, and upgraded the motor and battery with the Pro models to extend the runtime and versatility of the pumps. While the AS2 Pro versions are still quite compact, the Pro is a few millimeters larger in each dimension than the AS2 while the Pro Max adds over 10 mm to the width and height. Visually, the pumps all look quite similar with a rounded aluminum body and large CYCPLUS branding on the side. The valve is located on the side while the LED screen of the Pro models is on the opposite side along with three buttons to control the pumps.
The larger size of the AS2 Pro pumps significantly extends the run times as CYCPLUS is able to incorporate larger batteries. That lets you use the AS2 Pro pumps on multiple bikes and tires without having to constantly worry about the battery running out of juice. The AS2 Pro’s 400mAh battery allows it to inflate two 700x32 tires up to 80 psi. With the AS2 Pro Max the runtime is almost doubled to four tires which lets you use the pump across multiple bikes and rides. While the electronic pumps still are limited to battery capacity, it’s a nice upgrade from disposable CO2 canisters and less efficient mini pumps.

I got the AS2 Pro. It’s fantastic. I get around 3 inflates to 80psi. The battery charge stays on full for 2 months easily. I think it’s more reliable and controlled than a CO2 cartridge. I only wish getting tyres on and off the rim was as easy
Have it and love it , easy to use and carry
Was waiting for this one!
Perfect for specific use cases like cycling the Camino for multiple days. I wanted something small, not a full size floor pump, but wasn’t looking forward to using a mini hand pump every single day. I think I will take the electric pump for convenience but also the mini hand pump for backup.
This is my exact set-up/carry. cheers.
I ordered a clone of these from the site named after the famous thief of Baghdad. I have a Jansno X50 ebike and I can only mount a small frame tool bag so this is a must for me. I'm not too worried about the one I ordered only having a 500mA battery as I can charge it like a hundred times from my ebike before the ebike battery goes dead. I saw a review on it by another guy so I know it works. Maybe I'll do a review on my tech channel. Now I have 20x4 fat tires so I'm not sure if it will do 2 tires? They are only 30PSI max so there is a lot of volume but low pressure. Maybe the lower pressure is easier on the pump and uses less juice? I guess I'll find out when it comes in. It's for an emergency pump by the side of the road not a permanent pump solution. Great for ebiking. Thanks for the video, much appreciated.
not a fan ! yet another item to charge up ,no thanks i'll stick to my floorpump when at home and my lightweight lezyne mini floorpump when on bike
I get that, between electronic shifters / taillights / headlights there are already too many things to keep charged up. I think the AS2 Pro and other little pumps like this make the most sense for traveling or for commuting to top of tubes without the need for a big pump.
The weak point of these products is the battery. If there is no possibility of changing the battery, their lifespan is approximately two years.
Unfortunately there really aren't many products out there with replaceable batteries. Hopefully "right to service" laws gain some momentum and that changes.
