Title: Digital Tyre Pressure Gauge
Post by: Juvecu on August 13, 2010, 18:52:26

Can anyone recommend a small, but accurate digital tyre pressure gauge? Like everything else I'd imagine that some of them are better and more accurate than others. I don't want to spend a fortune, just need something fairly accurate that will last with regular use.

My gauges are calibrated every six months, I also carry a master to check on a regular basis. So my kit is spot-on.
One of my customers has a Draper that he paid about £6 for, checked it for him, it was accurate for its range. Can't be bad for the price.
Anything with the Michelin name should be good too.

Thanks, just the kind of advice I was looking for :thumb:

Got myself a Michelin one off Ebay for £6.35 including delivery. It has a guaranteed accuracy of 1% and a zero function so it'll do the job fine. Considering that this is something that can potentially last for many years (assuming I don't drop/ride over/step on it...) I think it's worth the money  :thumb:
