Track pump gauges are difficult to read with any degree of accuracy – at least mine is. This digital one means you know exactly how much air is in the tyre. It transpires my track pump gauge was also not accurate – sometimes a couple of pounds can make a difference and this tool helps establish precise pressures. It’s easy to use, does not leak air when engaged on the valve and you can tune the pressure while it’s fitted.

Bought this for checking my bike tyres pressure and although quite expensive, the other reviews online about it being good are correct. I now use this as my main gauge when setting my tubeless or tube tyre pressures. The digital display is easy to see, the continuous reading is great as you use the release button to reduce the pressure to what you need. Works across schrader and normal car tyre valves so covers my road and hybrid bike. At first it was fiddly to use and I found I let a lot of air out to begin with when taking a reading, but once you get used to holding it at the correct angle it just works and I now find it simple to use and more accurate than my track pump gauge. Generally now pump up higher than required pressure on track pump then use this and the release button to get the specific pressure I want. Excellent bit of kit and worth the hefty price tag. It also stows away nicely as its pretty small, so fits in my wheel bag when heading to an event.

Pressure readings are consistent all the time – how accurate I am not too sure. It’s very light and the plastic feels strong but I won’t say it’s high quality. Liked the twistable head although I didn’t really needed it. Really liked the pressure release button which was the main selling point of this product – it’s not common to have with digital pressure gauges.The transparent screen shield fell off after about 6 months of usage exposing the 7-segment LED display which was very disapointing especially for this price point. But this was easily stuck back on again with some superglue.Usually when I adjusting pressure on my tyres I first measure the pressure with the gauge, then pump up with a foot pump, then release pressure with gauge. I find that the auto power-off feature is way too quick! After I pump up tyre which takes about 10-20 seconds the gauge already is already turned off! Switching it back on again means I have to set the gauge to pressure release mode (continuous reading mode) again. This is the only thing I really dislike about the gauge.

There are so many gauges apparently suitable for presta valves out there and there are plenty that get poor reviews. I looked long and hard before settling on this one. I have used others before but this one really works well. This fits my presta valves effortlessly and without the need for adaptors. It also seems to be reasonably accurate too and is a good design – comfortable to hold and easy to read; the rotating head helps in this regard. It is just as good, for the same reasons, with schrader valves. The leak feature to adjust air pressure is also good and easy to use – overall, an excellent piece of kit.

Lighter than expected. Will carry on rides. Excellent.
