Better than CO2???

In this video I review the Flextail Tiny Pump and Cycplus AS2 Pro Max for bikepacking:

I got a Cycplus because it has the pressure gauge. For multi-day trips its super handy for topping up to the right pressure. Its so quick to use, its easy to stick a couple of extra psi in if you hit a long road section. Just with that type of use, on two bikes, it easily lasts a week or more between charges. It might be a bit heavy and very loud, but having the right tyre pressure makes those hills feel so much easier 😂

Totally agree, I used to use CO2 but nowadays I use a pump as they are so much more reliable.

Never got into co2 - molecules are smaller than the 'air' a tyre inflated with co2 ends up going flat anyway.
i take a small pump with me just incase but switched to cycplus a while ago even if somewhat loud. Love it.

Co2 for rides at home and a pump for bike packing/ touring

If you’re bikepacking, it also means you’re unnecessarily carrying another battery. It’d be cool there was an electric pump with no battery attached

Looking to buy a good hand pump. Can u recommend a couple.

I don’t see the point in these pumps tbh. I have a Silca Tattico, top quality hand pump and no charging. I think in a race maybe handy, but not bikepacking. If I get a flat which is rare, I tend to just sit down, relax and pump up. I wouldn’t care if it takes 5 minutes. Definitely better than Co2 but not than a pump in my opinion

If you find them by beer cans it won't be CO², but NOS!

[garyboyle]

And they are expensive. Get the correct type of pump and you can't go wrong.

The ones with the beer cans are probably nitrous oxide canisters! Used by kids to get high
