Debating whether to purchase a 60psi one too...
$40 landed is pretty decent.
Amazon reviews are full of people dropping and damaging them so I'mma stick with the boot.

I know a shed where I can find one of these from our three wheeler farm bike days where 9psi was the order of the day.

The 0-60 psi version would sort that at the expense of the finer gauge.
Wadda ya reckon?
Edit: is the boot worth the extra size? My fanny's pretty tight as it is.
Booted and bootless are both on amazon, about $10 cheaper without.

Mint, they arrived.
Had a wee play with them.
Turns out they read about 6 psi lower than my current gauge.
Compared them 4 times and got results +-0.5 psi from each other.
Repeatability is great.
Read my tire 4 times and lost just over half a psi.
Range on the 30 psi is fine, turns out I was running 19/22 psi according to it.
Lands me straddling the point where it reads 2 to 3% accuracy.
I like the pressure hold feature.
Will compare when the 60 psi versions arrive.

What rims and tires are you running Dougal? Big old dual plys make such a difference. So does good suspension setup![]()
I've spent the last two months trying to destroy a pair of mavic wheels and they were great considering they're "trail" rims, still really true with only a couple dents due to situations where I was convinced I was walking home after hearing the bang. And my e13 rims are doing well but they are heavyish. On the other side, I was far nicer to the bontrager wheels I had than the mavics and the rear couldn't hold a tire on after a handful of rides. My WTBs are filled with cracks and the rear is an octagon.
