Jimmy has been a pleasant addition to the channel. His joyful banter as Francis’ sidekick provides humor while providing useful bike and product info.
Totally agree! Jimmy is just hilarious and adds even more charm to the already charming and fun show
Super thanks to Jimmi and Francis for recommending our product! It would be our honor to have you test and use it!
Regarding the battery life issue mentioned by some friends in the comments, we would like to clarify that after CUBE is turned off, only the protection circuit is continuously working, with a power consumption of about 20uA. Therefore, theoretically, even if left unused for three months, CUBE still has more than half of its battery life. However, in order to protect the health of the battery, we recommend that you recharge it every three months even if not in use.
In addition, in pursuit of the ultimate compactness, we did not include a barometer and screen in the design. But we will launch a small air pump with a barometer in the future, which will be slightly larger. If any friends have this need, please stay tuned with us!
Lastly, thank you again for your super detailed test! ❤
Will your pump work on a motorcycle tire?
Guys, I looked for your product but you site was down and could only find competitor products. Need to to sort your digital marketing game out.
Can it work on a motorbike? Would be insane for adventure bikes that want to take the smallest possible
Thanks Francis and Jimmi for covering the new Top Tube Packs! We worked hard for over two years to develop the new range to make sure they will be the best top tube packs you will ever use.
Hi! Can you give us a hint about the big top tube bag Francis used?
@@tomiselmer I asked about that as I'd seen a black one on Chris Halls bike (hint... suggested it was beyond the trial stage...) Tailfin said "not yet..." but it's on the way... Looking forward to it...
@@markjthomson thanks!
I'm anxiously awaiting mine!
The snapback on the top tube bag is interesting as I've lost count on how bags, jackets, gilets - anything with a zip basically - I have made useless simply because of the zip.
The humble zip is pretty high up on the list, along with shoelaces, of things that we have been relying on for, idk hundreds of years probably and have yet to find another way. My only "concern" for want of a better word, is can you flick them up and get inside quickly before the darn thing latches itself closed again!
Never thought I’d see Pump Action Francis replaced by a small vibrating device.
FYI, the Chinese on the box for the electric pump reads: "When the tire is not completely flat, start the pump before attaching it to the valve"
Wish I could do that with a track pump so I don't pish half the air out before I've got the thing attached!
Had a faulty shifter on my 1x11 Ltwoo gravel group. Reached out to Ltwoo and sent videos of it not working properly. They sent me a new shifter with hose and barbs/olives. Just paid $10 postage.
That's better than some American warranties I've had to work through.
It would be fantastic if you put links to the products in the video descriptions.
Fumpa from Australia has been making e-pumps like that for years now! One of them has an accurate pressure gauge, and I have been using it for 3 years now, I love it. I throw it in my bike box everytime I fly with my bike, so I don't have to carry a track pump. If I remember correctly, Dave Rome has reviewed the difference between Fumpa and Cycplus in an instagram post a while ago.
Yup, I've owned one of those for a few years.
That mini compressor is perfect for a saddlebag! I've been using their taller one for about two years now.
How many tyres will it do?
@@robertsmme from flat i have done 4 tires to around 6 bar or 70psi with my old 25mm tyres
i mean, the c02 is literally 4 seconds but im over carrying like 6 c02's lol. prob buying this
Kudos to Jimmy for seeing the need of the pump for people with mobility issues! A lot of these things are never covered down for being gimmicks, but actually can make a huge difference!!
When we were backpacking through Austria we met two middle aged ladies who were also bikepacking, they had an amazing electric bikepump, which was definitely bigger than the Cycplus however you could set the exact PSI/Bar you wanted it to pump up, really nice if you are weaker or just can't bother pumping all the time, its also helpful to put the exact same pressure in your tires every time you pump it up
How is it possible that Tailfin still didn’t figure out that the interior of the bags should be a bright color for easier visibility?
AGREED.
Just get an Apidura one
@@Juan_More_Mile Thanks.
Gents, you need a large cade decal in your background at stage top left. Looks like a perfect spot for that.
I’d be interested in more tests on that little pump. How many tires, gravel tires, etc. It just looks super handy.
In my next life, I want to come back as you. What an incredible job you have and do. You have provided countless hours of entertainment, which provides happiness too. Thank you and all your partners and friends for this journey. Keep up the great work. 😁
Mailbox Monday on Thursday! 😅
Be careful guys😉 with those boxes!
Xmas comes to Cade Media in April ! 🥳
Just like bikefit Tuesday is on any day but Tuesday
And wild (left hand side) is now perfectly in focus. Well done.
‘In my hand not in my face’. Classic Jimmy. Enjoyable unboxing of boxes.
Have you thought of a live tour? I’d pay to see you present stories from your adventures, Francis photos and a Q&A. Have a thunk about it guys, please.
Jimmi sipping tea as Francis furiously pumps his tire. Classic 🤣👍
Thanks Francis and Jimmi..........I'm a tailfin guy from watching this channel , Old and slow , still on the go !
Here I am sitting at work first time watching one of your video shows and listening using my hearing aids. So glad I work in an private office. I am laughing my ass off but no one walking by knows why. Thanks for a great vid.
Your videos are always informative and entertaining 👍
Nice to see pump action Francis again.
Love the electric pump. We need more batteries produced and dumped into the planet. When did cycling go from a pretty green activity and industry into something that requires batteries and electricity?
Once a recent group ride the fellow who flatted had an injured shoulder. I hung back to help him fix it while everyone else went on to the re-group point. He was unable to get to a decent pressure before his shoulder was screaming at him, so I helped him once his ego got out of the way. A pump like this would be perfect for the geriatric group rides I go on. It would also let you get the old tube and tire levers stowed back away, and maybe even remount the wheel to save some time while it was still pumping.
There are some top products there. Thank you very much. Best regards, Martin
The cyclite pump is pretty cool. I have one and it works well.
Cycplus will be great for tubeless... put a plug in, wait a bit, pump it up... go go go... I'd just love if you could set a PSI threshold via USB... like setting it to stop at 75 PSI (or whatever fits you...)
or even if it just had a psi gauge to tell you when to pull it off
I think a psi gauge would make this a must have. It’s pretty good as it is though.
I'm still amazed over Francis and Justin cycling 3,000+ miles across America in the relatively short time that they did it. I mean, how fooking fit and strong must these guys be?? More than me for sure. 👍
Love your Grand Seiko GMT Jimmy
😀
Nice one lads. Love the top tube bags.
For big tires (gravel/mountain bike), the mini compressor is very useful. Not so much for a road bike since it really won't hit the high pressures.
Nice watch Jimmy. Also a massive fan of bikes and GS. Keep it up you two
😀
Awesome content!! I just got a beeline velo 2 and I am absolutely in love with it. Would be really nice to see a review :)
Best cycling channel in TH-cam, and it ain't cost.
Not a bad bunch of boxes, flip top Tailfin bag good for fast entry to Percy Pig stash, electric pump is impressive too.
Thankful this wasn't about a replacement part. The Tailfin bags look original and very cool. I see a sandwich on a future ride. 🐸
If you are traveling with your bike, the small electric pump can be used each day before you ride vice packing a big pump. Recharge it in your room while you’re out riding
I have a Relevate Designs top tube bag with a magnetic flap (and bright interior colors). It's absolutely brilliant for grabbing food on the go. The attachment system isn't nearly as nice as those however.
More of these vids please!
Here I just bought all new o-rings for my Lezyne pumps and you have convinced me I need a new electric pump.
I saw this pump on Taiwan bike show video, I bought one a few weeks ago. It's really cool stuff. I keep this in my pocket instead of a pump or co cartridge. Fumpa is another company that does this. You should compare the two.
Non-flat tire Start before connecting to the nozzle is a message I think we can all get behind...
Is this like bike fit tuesdays where episodes don't come out on a tuesday?
the thing with that little cube pump is: when that little motor ultimately wears out, or the battery, you'll be stuck so you still have to bring the hand pump "just in case". this happened to me recently (with a much different bigger and heavier battery Bank pump) I got a broken off bit of cable wire in my tire, went to leave work my tire was flat. pulled out my battery-powered pump, and when I put it on it was misreading the air pressure the display of which was fluctuating wildly between 1 and 3 digits (not counting the decimal which was limited to 0 or 5) fortunately there was a fuel station nearby that offered free air, so is able to fill it up and go home, watch the tube the next day, and swap for my hand pump.
that cube pump is much lighter and smaller than mine was, and takes up similar space as a CO2 cartridge one thing you didn't tell us is how many tires you can fill on a single battery. it doesn't seem to have digital read out, which is a shame since that would have been easy to add to it without making it that much bigger, or adversely affecting the price
Pump action Francis is back!
love the mini compressor. just ordered one!
I have one it's really good. Saves space and (if it lasts) more sustainable than CO2 cannisters.
@@pscoop That's why it appeals to me. I prefer using CO2 so reducing the long term cost of that would be great
A coopla lads on Christmas morn, tis is 😀👍
The top frame bag looks a lot like the Apidura x Canyon one they released when the Grizl came out.
Which I like. A LOT
I got a better result from Google translate on "non-flat tire..."
"When the tire is not empty, first start the air pump and then connect the air nozzle."
That probably prevents loss of air.
For me as a professional camera operator for adventure action documentaries, I could safe space I usually have for a pump for another lens, action cam etc. the mini pump just through it's form factor would be useful for me.
That mini compressor is getting added to my birthday wishlist. Jimmy can we get a discount for channel fans :)
yall should do a tool board setup, I would be curious to see how you have your tools set up!
Top grades for informative entertainment!
Glad you did a quick review of the cycplus. Saw an ad for it the other day. Did you finish your cup of coffee before the tyre was pumped or did you have time for a refill? Keep up the reviews.
Smart to upload on the wrong days for the free comments for the algorithm.
I like how your tools are arranged on the pegboard. Can you send a snap shop of the whole board?
Hi Francis, if you want I can test one of the Tailfin toptube bags
The only reason you cant taste the salt in that electrolyte replacement drink I’d imagine is because it’s jam packed with either sugar or artificial sweeteners. Not that they’re bad per se.
they will have some glucose as it enhances salt uptake
I have chronic tennis elbow and that Electronic pump is a godsend
That mini pump actually looks pretty useful but not sure I’d be keen paying £70 for it though.
The cycplus can be set to specific psi and it'll pump the tires to set psi
Excellent lads keep this great content coming 👍. Please is there a link code to tailfin? Deff keen on a aero rack and one of those new top tube bags. Cheers 🤙
Styrker electrolyte pills.. diggin it. As I understand, there are 4 electrolytes. Some of which are in multi vitamins, which is what I take before rides. However, these electrolyte tablets are bound to be more balanced and complete. Worth looking into imo
This is how I'd like my Christmas days to go, but with turkey and things.
The lengths that roadies will go to in order to not use a pannier rack.
The tailfin alloy rack with pannier mounts will set you back 215 EUR. That’s 4 times what I paid for my Tubus Fly steel rack. The tailfin looks a lot less low profile and kind of weird. The Tubus fly weighs just north of 700g. Better option IMO if you have the mounts for it. There’s even a titanium version if you feel like spending more.
Is it possible to use the Tubus Fly steel rack without mounts on your frame?
@@sumselknoten There are various adapters. Not sure whether it’s possible to mount it to a thru axle though. My frame has mounts. It’s gonna be a lot more difficult obviously on a frame that has no mounts at all.
The titan airy rack by Tubus costs round about 220 €urodollars and weighs less than the Tailfin rack. Nevertheless Tailfin is a great company that is able to sell a inferior product for roughly the same price. They understood that people on road bikes do have to much cash in their pockets. Their marketing departement should get a raise.
The easy usage with a drive through axle on a frame without any mounts is tailfins unique selling point for me. I therefore wouldn't say it's an inferior product. And I love bike packing with my aero bike and zipping along at high speeds :)
As we get older we need a good easy pump 🤣 Oh dear can get sodium stuff so easily and a little bit of CO-OP juice (other brands available) works just as-well
Funny guys. Enjoyed every minute of your video.
I have been refreshing panda podium on a daily basis since Joe fist mentioned it. We are beginning to run out of April!
That’s a lovely Grand Seiko :)
😀
Love this
Turbo Pump Action Francis.
Been following this channel for 7+ (?) years -- I've truly loved it for all this time.
I know you have to do it for clicks and the algo, but from my humble kitchen table chair, the hyperbolic, super dorky thumbnails make me not want to click bc I don't want to encourage this meme-y race to the bottom.
Love you, Francis!
What would you suggest as an alternative title? 😂
@@JakeMay Title's fine, would get rid of the dorky face w/ red arrow. I liked Francis's old thumbnails 😍
I want that mini pump thingy
I was a backer of the Cycplus inflator. My main gripe about it is that it is loud AF. I still haven't taken it out on a ride yet, but it seems to me it will be more useful for longer rides and multi day rides, not as quick as CO2 but possibly more environmentally friendly?
Cool GS GMT)
I like the idea of the battery powered pump but what if you forget to charge it, or the battery degrades over time, or if you get 3 flats on one ride? At least a traditional mini pump will always work! I'll stick to that thanks, it only looks to take 30seconds longer to pump it up anyway
The minipump looks like it takes up less space than the lezyne micro floor drive I bring bikepacking. That might be an upgrade.
That electric air pump 😂 I'd love to get one ill look it up online
I want that pump!
About marks, there are marks. If you ride in dusty condition, you get scratches
Well, there is a bit of misunderstanding/mistranslation problem for the mini pump. The Chinese part of that yellow tag says, "when the tire is flat, first start pump, then connect the valve". Hope that helps. Enjoy the pump, I love it!
I'd be pretty upset if it were only monday. Thankfuly, tomorrow is Fun Stuff Friday 😀
I'd like to know if the new tailfin would mount securely given that I have external cable routing?
I love that thumbnail lmao
The Tailfin top tube bag closing itself could be quite annoying and fiddly if you've taken something out of it whilst riding, have it in your hand, and then need to try to re-open it whilst holding something else?
I had exactly the same thing happen with my ltwoo groupset and got a new shifter within 2 weeks, couldn't fault the customer service to be honest
How many tyres can you pump up on a single charge?
do you have link for the cycplus pump? Their web site does not appear to have the one shown in your video. Cheers
Are you able to fit the electric pump into a standard tool bottle?
Apidura had the magnet LONG time ago
Hi! can you please try that cycplus to a flat sedan car tire? next video.or short vid ..thanks
Potential for that mini pump to be used in amateur racing…? Great video guys
More. That was funny.
could you test the cycplus pump on new tubeless roadtires? could this replace a airtank? :D
Mini pump is great, no need for little c02 canisters.
should make it a little bigger with a psi reader.
With the Cuba, you have... Pumpless Action Francis?
173 grams for a full handlebar is indeed very light! Very!
Nice e.pump , cool gadget for cyclists.. hopping there all ready here in Phillipines.😊😊😊
Can you put a link for the electric pump? Thank you
