Not a bad pump but seems like the Cycplus is the winner due to the price and not having the nozzle. Thanks for the great review!

[@melvintanchannel]

Welcome glad this video helped u in making a decision.

[@collinwee6530]

it's a pump day bro. Another great honest bike gadget review bro! Cheers and happy riding.

[@melvintanchannel]

Thanks bro

[@arkadiuszzielenkiewicz5566]

Hi Melvin. You can use any charger with those devices, as far as 240W PD power supply. You cant damage anything doing that, it's just not the way those work.

[@melvintanchannel]

Hey bro thanks for your tip.... It's just that in the user manual it is stated charging mode 5V 1.5A, while I am not an engineer I did a simple AI search using bard, it also recommended not to use high power charing brick as it is not efficient and might take longer to charge a smaller battery... Interesting and it did state will not damage the battery.... But thanks again for this... I learn so much because of u bro... 😊🙏

[@marcleysanvictores3859]

This Fextail looks like the Cyclami pump that i bought for 26 USD. different brand/packaging but contents and silhouette are the same.

[@melvintanchannel]

Omg... Probably oem kinda story huh... Thanks for the Input.

[@cedricdelacruz128]

Hi, how about the rockbros e-pump, have you tried it? Thanks

[@melvintanchannel]

Sorry didn't have the chance to test out rockbross... Somehow looking at the form factor seems comes from the same factory 😂... But anyhow.... Good luck in making ur decision 👍🏼

[@rayF4rio]

Interesting tech for a back-up in the car or at home. But when riding I just do not see the point of relying on an electronic device when you are already in failure mode (flat tire). Once I am in failure mode (flat tire) I depend on a fail proof tool - the mini pump (or 2 CO2's prior to tubeless). My current setup is a mini pump (Silca Tattico) and Dynaplug for my tubeless bikes. Tube and tire boot in the saddle bag for extreme cuts (I've also used 20 peso and $10 bills before in a pinch).

[@melvintanchannel]

That is well prepared bro! 💪❤️

[@VoodooEx]

Nice comparism! I own the Fumpa, Nano, Mini and Cycplus. I like that cycplus is very compact to carry in a cycling wallet. The protruding head of the flextail and fumpa is annoying to store. I have so far throw my Fumpa into store room because of that. The rubber in the pump head on the Fumpa keep failing. Luckily the claiming process is quick and easy. Btw, not sure how much you weight. 75-80psi on a 28mm tubeless setup is kind of high. I weight 80kg and only pump around 62/65 psi F/B.

[@melvintanchannel]

I am not 80kg sadly... Hahaha I am. 95 so abit more needed...

[@VoodooEx]

@@melvintanchannel CNY coming, we all might gain a few kgs there from the cookits. don't overshoot the 3 digits mark. 😁

[@paulkillington5089]

Hi There, Im considering getting one of these pumps. It seems as if they can only be used a certain number of times, (I assume until the batter will no longer hold sufficient charge) So can the battery be swapped out ..? Ive not seen that noted anywhere.

[@melvintanchannel]

Heya... Battery can't be swapped out but good news is you can charge it with your phone if ur phone supports reverse charging or your front light... See this video... This pump highly recommended for me personally. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIa9hqVojpKfq5Ysi=X0S9t_XTLwXlCOg1 One full charge you can use it about 2 and a half times of 100psi per tyre and it only takes 20mins to fully charge it up again to 100%

[@abbigaillau9618]

i will take these mini pump over co2. i am running tpu, that very cold co2 might kill the plastic valve stem.

[@melvintanchannel]

Yes what ever works best... Lol. Nothing worst den a puncture.

[@ahduck7]

New Cycplus AS2 Pro with the pressure gauge is out.

[@melvintanchannel]

Yea I have it in my house... Finding time to do a review 😂

[@Hafiz_Vanyar]

free give away pump coming? 😂😂😬 thanks for the review ❤❤

[@melvintanchannel]

Hahaha follow my Instagram... A GAW is happening soon

[@BN99239]

What exactly are the advantages of these types of pump? I have a manual one that I carry. Yes, it's about 3x the length of these but it's not as wide, maybe half the width of these tiny pumps. Are these tiny pumps primarily for fitting into tighter spaces? When ever I take my bike anywhere longer than 2-3 miles, I would bring a small bag with me and just wear that so I can have water, food and other bike tools inside. This is why I don't really see a good use case for these. Not only that, it's battery powered so you have to rely on the electronics being in good working condition as well as the battery being in good working condition. Sure, it takes me a bit of effort to pump anything above 55psi, but it's not that bad and not like I have to do that very often. Just curious why someone would spend $100+ for these is all.

[@melvintanchannel]

@BN99239 Heya brother... Very valid comment and u r not wrong... While manual hand mini pump is a recipe whats not broken why fix it... There are so many times when my frens tyre got a puncture and they carry a hand pump they will surely use my electric pump for the speed and convenience 😂... A hand pump takes about 500 pumps to full pump a road bike tyre it's usually an effort both tiring and it does take time... So I use a Co2... And many of my frens when we cycle we don't carry a bag just a small saddle bike. So I guess it depends. Of cycling solo or frens dun mind waiting 20 mins to repair a puncture tyre... Can't deny with either a Co2 or an electric pump repairimg tyre is cut short to only 10 mins... If on tubeless the tyre repair takes only 5 mins with either a co2 or electric pump. But u r right... I've lived with a hand pump for 5 years in the pass and never had an issue... Good to have Co2 or electric pump but not entirely a must... But once u go in to these electric pumps... The speed and convenience it's worth it if u r willing to spend the money 😊

[@BN99239]

@@melvintanchannel Ah, I see so it's a big time saving too. That's good to know, thank you!

[@yuejincheong1696]

Are any of the pumps water proof? Like if we ride in the rain , will the pumps still work?

[@melvintanchannel]

Nope not waterproof cuz the usb port is exposed... Best wrap it in plastic bag..

[@yuejincheong1696]

@@melvintanchannel thanks bro. See u around soon.

[@VishnuRajendranAmboo]

Sometimes I truly wonder, do you really need it? Co2 is fast, just 10-20 grams more.. rider weight makes a different 😂🤣 My hand pump + Co2 cukup di. Been very lucky since some I use an anti puncture tape, yes more weight and last puncture was at the side wall, but it works for me. Some people bad luck with anything, every time got puncture issues.. Still a nice honest review bro.. 😁😁😁😁😁

[@melvintanchannel]

Hahaha u be surprise I use the pump just not for me but for others too 😂😂😂😂 I puncture alot anyway 😂last time... Now using tubeless hardly puncture 😂

[@VishnuRajendranAmboo]

@@melvintanchannel lol the moral of the story is go tubeless 🤣😂 that's why you're a legend bro, tolong menolong 😁 Next bike probably go tubeless

[@davidlau2467]

Good review. Is that a Tudor?

[@melvintanchannel]

LOL nope sorry... Seiko fan boy here.... 😂 It's a seiko spb143 😍

[@davidlau2467]

@@melvintanchannel cycling related of course. Thought you'd pair Tudor with BMC next.

[@dausmoithai6198]

Wow.. so noisy.. Got a quieter one?

[@melvintanchannel]

Lol so far all e pumps r kinds loud... But use outdoor not noticeable.

[@camperp195]

You need to do this test on an mtb tyre 29x2.6 tyre would be a good test,personally I’d rather have my pump,no chance of failing and guaranteed to inflate,two tyre inflation (700c) with these pumps is crap,and for the money,its not worth it,lezyne pump and 1 co2 for back up is perfect,dont waste your money guys

[@melvintanchannel]

Lol well u do u I guess 😂
