I have recently been testing the Cycplus AS2 Ultra, Cycplus’s most refined electric pump, and early impressions are positive; it is effectively a mash-up of the tiny standard AS2 with the AS2 Pro’s functionality. Given that both of those pumps have been rated very highly by colleagues, with the latter being awarded our Best overall electric bike pump I can’t see the AS2 being knocked off its perch any time soon.
However, the Ultra sees Cycplus break the £100 barrier, which isn’t cheap, but it’s not outrageous, until you take into consideration the price of the Airbank Mini. It’s already rated as our best budget electric bike pump, with 4.5 stars out of 5, and it’s now just £33 in the Amazon spring sale.
Now, just £33, the Airbank Mini Electric Bike Pump
Even with the discounts spotted earlier this week by my colleague, Rich, which sees the standard AS2 down 20% and now under £52, the Airbank is still 35% cheaper. It’s a whopping 60% less than the AS2 Ultra, even with it’s 15% discount.
So, what is the difference?
Between the standard AS2 and the Airbank, there’s really very little difference. Sam noted performance was on par, and the main difference was simply that the AS2 comes standard with a silicone cover to stop heat from conducting to your hand.
As we jump up to the AS2 Pro & Ultra, of course, weight, the LED displays, and the programmable nature of these pumps are big benefits. If that is what you are after, then the AS2 Pro is still our best overall electric bike pump and worth every penny, made better with its current 15% discount, of course.
