Default One for the gadget fans...

Busters are doing the Meta SmartTyre for £70!

I'm sure that is less than half price...

Have a look here: http://www.busters-accessories.co.uk...prod=SMARTTYRE

See this before, if I remember right was about £125 or so, but even at £70 it's still alot of money just so you don't have to check you tyre pressures

Cheers Mark.

and surely you'd notice anything slow enough to do anything about while riding, and anything serious enough to cause a danger probably wouldn't give enough warning.

Carry a tyre wand type pressure reader under the seat, it's the size of a biro and takes all of a few seconds a tyre to check, if you think they're low pull over and check, all for under £10

Or you could try those things Ultraseal make, they sit on the valves and turn yellow when you go a bit down, or red when they go right down... Got a set lying about somewhere, they don't seem heavy enough to be a threat to your valves like Tyreflies.

But you miss the point- it's a gadget, it doesn't have to pay for itself or be practical! It just needs to be cool.
