This will be rep[lacing my C02 for sure, people might be asking for tubeless, as long as you plug your tubeless and the tire stays sealed it should pump up the tire, I do not think the inflator can pump enough pressure to rebead a tire

My Cycplus (the small one!) re-seated and inflated a filthy, partially unseated 27.5 x2.4 tyre to 21 psi before it ran out. I was damn impressed. I got it on video. In the manual it says it has a 200 pump lifetime. Hopefully when it dies there's some kind of recycle scheme. That would be 👌🏻

It will seat better than most floor pumps. The other thing is its transfers heat to the valve and breaks up and sticky selant that is preventing your pump from working. Ive only had to use a charge pump once. This has done every othe seat well enough.

@@crankshoptv8141 Really? Full pumps of that size tyre? The websites says 200 recharges before a 10% degradation of battery performance. With 4 full pumps of a 25mm @80psi per charge, that's 800 inflations before the battery starts to degrade (but only 10%). That's a full flat every day for 2.2 years. I think 800 inflations, from side of the road punctures, might last me my life time (I am in my 40's).

Timely, had to use mine this morning. Have the starter AS2. I still also carry one CO2 just in case, have a Trek Domane and the downtube storage is most excellent. I do keep mine reguarly charged but paranoid as the batter life left. Based on you review showing the display panel. I am going to get the AS2 Pro and give my AS2 to the spouse. Side bar tubeless recommendation, always carry a valve removal tool and bottle of sealant. I had a small leak and was able to resolve in materially less time than changing a tube.

You’re right, this changes the game. I’ve had one for 6 months, and after two flats, I’m never going back. Aside from having enough charge for 2-3 tires, a big positive is the ability to partially inflate the tube to give it shape before the install. Cartridges are all or nothing, with no ability to add only 10PSI. Lastly, this pump only takes a 1-2 minutes to inflate. One of my flats was on a -5 C day, and a traditional hand pump would have been torture.

To me the C02 makes more logical sense, basically the work of compressing the air is done already by some other machine at a factory, all you need to do is then transfer the air to the tire. No pump, motor, battery, micro computer, etc.
