How do you use a lifeline pressure gauge?

You simply press the gauge onto the valve head and within 3 seconds you will have the precise value of the pressure within your tyre.

What should my MTB tire pressure be?

Typical mountain bike pressures range from 22psi (1.5 bar) to 35psi (2.4 bar), generally with more air in the rear than the front. This is because more of your weight is on the rear, so it needs more support.

Can you use a car tire pressure gauge on a bike?

Most can. If the pressure goes up high enough. Many car gauges only go up to 50 psi or so which is low for a road bike and even for a mountain bike if you want to ride on the road or smooth trails. Presta valves are no problem.

What do you like most about Topeak gauges?

Very easy to operate and understand. Topeak’s own instructions tell you not to violently shake or drop the gauge, so it does need to be treated with respect if it’s to carry on functioning accurately, but it’s otherwise built to last. Light enough to carry in a jersey pocket.

How accurate is the Topeak tyre pressure gauge?

The Topeak appears to under-read by 1-2psi at 20psi (measured on a car tyre). This is easily within acceptable limits for cycling use, and might only ever be a problem if you were inflating your tyres to somebody else’s pressure. And in any case, it’s very hard to guarantee the other person has a truly accurate gauge either.

How long does the SmartGauge bleep for?

The SmartGauge bleeps when it has a steady reading (psi, bar or kg/cm2) and displays it for 25 seconds before auto-shutdown kicks in to save the battery. Long enough to read easily, then, but not long enough to check back if you subsequently forget.
