Any body know of an accurate tyre pressure guage?
I have got 4 (including one on the foot pump) and they all read different.

Good luck with this one! I have several that vary by as much as 20 psi on the same tyre!!!!!

Take tyre to a tyre company who use a calibrated gauge then take the reading to work out which one of yours is nearest.
Or spend a few quid a buy a calibrated sealey or Draper (two I have found last the longest,other brands are available) gauge,assuming you have a compressor.

may help?
But in general, PCL stuff is likely to be the best. The pencil gauges are good, if old fashioned.

checked today and mine is a Sealey model SA37/93. v3 and came with a calibration cert. Retail price is about £130.

For a budget solution I have these 2 items. The Halfords digital gauge is 10 years old. The double barrelled foot pump ... 2 weeks.
