Cyclami A2 mini electric pump review and test 

Not only are they controlling the weather, they’re lying about it as well 😅👍

Morning Daz. Crazy weather for June isn't it. And it had just started to warm up nicely too!

@@JamesSocialCycling Morning James, sorry but who is they? God?

@@JamesSocialCycling 100% correct, all utter lies and nonsense, anyone who believes the lies about every month for (I think) 14 claimed consecutive months being the hottest on record needs help, same as anyone who thinks this is normal and not controlled needs help, the climate change hoax in full effect.

I will be interested to hear what you think when you get it.

Great summer weather isn’t it.

So far it seems promising doesn’t it.

Thanks Mike.

Hi Mike. Yes, I have also wondered how it will hold charge when left a long time. Let’s just say I will still be carrying a hand pump until I can trust it. At the moment although cold out at 10 degrees C, it’s still not 1 or 2 degrees C. So it will be interesting to see how it performs in the winter. Watch this space.

Hi. No, I don’t think this would manage with a motorcycle tyre. As you say the volume is a lot bigger. There are similar products made marketed at motorcycles I have seen.

They do pump up pretty quick initially, then getting the higher pressure is what takes time. With a CO2 canister, I guess the pressure in the canister is so so much higher. I haven't used CO2 for years. Not since the days I used to carry it when doing time trials or triathlons....and I haven't done a triathlon since 2016. Time will tell if I think it's worth getting over a CO2 setup. Thanks Mark.

It’s the noise that puts me off, think I would be banned from my group if I took that out. C02 for me I think, although rarely need to use with tubeless

@@heidijarvis777 the noise issue isn’t much of an issue for me as I cycle alone 90% or more of the time I’d say. Another factor I suppose, if id have been in a group and my pump broke or I had CO2 canister flat chances are someone else in the group would have a pump or CO2.

I’d say it’s no bigger than carrying a couple of cartridges of CO2 plus a small pump as back up. I understand what you say about cycling being simplistic. I’ve been cycling for probably 50 years. Definitely 45. I dig out my CO2 last week. And another canister was flat. So that’s two I had that I remember recently. Maybe a bad batch? Anyway I have ordered some more to compare. CO2 is certainly a hell of a lot faster than the electric pump, but then the electric pump is a lot faster than my little mini hand pump. If we go back to the old steel frame days, I have one of those hand pumps that fitted under the top tube. They were pretty good. Mind you, I had one of those fail on me out on a ride once. It flew apart into several pieces. That’s the 100psi we used to put in. Luckily I wasn’t on my own!

@@milobike569 sorry. Don’t understand those emojis

Glad you liked it, and wasted your own time watching. You didn’t have to watch.

Really? I have had issues with CO2 cartridges letting me down when needed. Had a load that were flat when needed. That was years ago. Never went back to them as just didn't trust them after that.
