Pumps

- Depending on the intended use, digital pressure gauges for precise pressures, large volumes for MTB and a long design for fast pumping are crucial.
- Clik-Valve pump heads are recommended for comfort and suitability for everyday use, but require the valves to be converted to the Clik standard.
- Cheap discount pumps are sufficient for infrequent pumping, but are power-intensive and inaccurate and therefore less suitable for regular use.

- Floor pumps differ greatly in feel, stability, effort, pressure gauge accuracy and quality of the pump head.  
- Digital, easy-to-read and precise pressure gauges (Acid, Topeak) as well as stable metal feet and ergonomic handles offer clear advantages.  
- All pumps tested fill tyres reliably; best value for money at around € 30 (e.g. Decathlon 900), Lidl-Crivit only suitable for occasional use.

PUMPS

- Mid-range floor pump with solid pumping performance, precise 0.1 bar pressure gauge and comfortable Schwalbe Clik-Valve pump head.  
- Weaknesses: twistable plastic base, cracking pressure gauge cover, inflexible hose, simple material appearance.  
- Valve head impresses with its compact design, one-handed operation, easy removal without a clamping lever and secure, airtight fit.

Bike pump with clever pump head: SKS Airkompressor Clik Tec

- Trek AirRush is the slowest model in the comparison test of seven mini compressors, but works reliably and ergonomically.
- The biggest advantage is the low temperature rise: 29 °C at 4 bar and 35 °C at 7 bar, making it the coolest pump in the test field.
- The AirRush manages 4.6 tyres (700x30) per battery charge, costs 89.99 euros, weighs 145 g and receives an overall TOUR rating of 2.6.

Trek AirRush test: The mini pump with a cool head

- Lightweight, affordable floor pump with very smooth pumping action and well-positioned but small-scale pressure gauge for everyday users.  
- Significant weaknesses: extremely wobbly, narrow base, short and angular valve head, air loss when pulling off both valve types.  
- Pressure gauge with coarse scale and significant measurement deviation; only suitable to a limited extent for precise, frequent use or sporty set-ups.

- Cycplus AS2 Pro achieved 4th place in the test: solid middle class in terms of pumping power, battery performance, size and weight, overall score 2.5.
- For 4 bar on 30 mm tyres it needs 59 s, for 7 bar 160-161 s; the battery lasts for around 4.25 tyres, charging takes around 40 minutes.  
- Housing heats up to 62 °C, noise level is within the usual range; good equipment with hose, cover, adapters and spare seals.

- Crivit XL floor pump offers a large stroke volume, stable metal base, ergonomic handle and multifunctional valve head for €11.99.  
- Weaknesses: wobbly piston and handle, high effort required even at low pressures, air loss at the valve head, inaccurate pressure gauge.  
- Suitable for everyday and occasional users; not recommended for ambitious riders due to precision and power deficits.

Floor pump from Lidl: Crivit XL - lots of power for little money?

- High stroke and long hose allow a lot of volume per pump stroke, but the pump is large and unwieldy for small people.  
- Very high effort required, wobbly stand and sensitive positioning of the valve head, especially with car valves.  
- Inaccurate, hard-to-read pressure gauge and poor workmanship reduce its suitability for occasional rather than sporty use.

Test bike pump: Pro Performance - plenty of stroke, but too imprecise

- Muc-Off Airmach Electric Mini Inflator Pro pumps 30 mm road bike tyres to 4 bar in 55 seconds, 7 bar is reached in 140 seconds.
- The 137 g lightweight compressor can inflate five 700x30 tyres on a single charge; a full charge takes around 30 minutes.
- Advantages are high performance and low heat build-up, disadvantages are the start button on the side and the poorly visible display facing the valve.

Muc-Off Airmach Electric Mini Inflator Pro: The mini compressor in the test

- Compact floor pump with low overall height, good for smaller people and tight spaces, solid pumping performance with moderate effort.  
- Easy-to-read, sufficiently precise pressure gauge and accessory compartment with ball needle and mattress adapter, overall simple material appearance.  
- Weaknesses: short, angular valve head with a slider that is susceptible to adjustment, possible air loss when pulling out and very short hose.

Floor pump from Zéfal put to the test: Profil Max FP20 - compact and precise

- Sturdy steel construction with wide metal base, large stroke and high volume, particularly suitable for large-volume MTB and gravel tyres
- Very precise pressure gauge in the 0-2 bar range with 0.1 bar increments, above this the display is coarse and tends to be too low, pressure release valve for fine adjustment
- Significantly high effort required, angular and unergonomic handle, short hose and possible air leakage when putting the valve head on and off

Merida Dual Gauge floor pump on test: plenty of volume and a clever pressure gauge

- Topeak E-Booster Digital mini achieved bronze in the TOUR test, scoring as the most compact mini compressor in the mid-price segment (109.95 euros).
- Pumping times: 30 mm tyres to 4 bar in 62 s, to 7 bar in 169 s; moderate heating of approx. 28 °C (4 bar) to 55 °C (7 bar).
- Features: standard adapter, inner tube, silicone cover, light; 33 x 57 x 95 mm, 142 g, 4.35 tyres per battery charge, TOUR rating 1.5.
