Review: Absolute Accuracy and Zero Frustration - When my Toppeak analog gauge finally fell apart after over ten years of heavy use my first thought was to get one exactly like it, but I was attracted to the feature on this gauge which allows you to release tire pressure while reading it as it drops and the fact that it has a single hole head which is compatible with both Presta and Schraeder. Months later, I couldn't be more pleased with this gauge. When I look at the gauge on my Lezyne Alloy Floor Drive Pump as I'm pumping up the tires the gauge on the pump is fairly accurate, but you can't increase pressure by only a pound or three, and you can't decrease pressure with it at all. So when I overpumped the tire--as on most any floor pump--I would have to remove the pump from the valve, take a wild guess about how much air I should let out, and repeatedly use my old analog gauge to check it until it was roughly the pressure I wanted. With this gauge I always put more pressure than I need in the tire, then remove the pump, measure the pressure--which is too high at that point--then press the button to measure the pressure as I use the release button to get it where I want it. This would be a pain in the butt if it weren't for the swivel head on the gauge which allows me to point the display where I can easily see it rather than change the position of the tire or tilt my head to view it. Overall this process has become quicker, easier, and more accurate due to this gauge. And it's a great benefit to other riders when I'm on a club ride or volunteering as a ride marshal in a community bicycle tour that with the flip of a switch I can change between Presta and Schraeder valves without having to take it apart or switch around any gaskets. A lot of people will tell you that you don't need a gauge, that they can tell just by squeezing the tire. That's nonsense. I used to think that until I finally bought a gauge and found out that when my mountain bike tires feel rock hard by the squeeze test they actually have only about 25 psi in them when they should be at least 50 psi, and my road bike tires might feel rock hard at 60 psi when they should be 120 psi. For reference, your car tires only take about 35 psi. And by the way, this is a great gauge to use on your car too. I check the tire pressure on my car at least every month, and more often when the seasons are changing. Sometimes I need to put more air in using the electric pump on my Slime 50051 Safety Spair All-In-One 36 Piece Roadside Emergency Essential Kit and sometimes I need to let out a pound or two of pressure. With this gauge, I don't have to guess how much air to let out when the pressure is too high, checking each tire multiple times until I have it right, or use the needle on the analog gauge to get an approximate pressure reading. Whether on my bikes or in my car, inaccurate tire pressure can mean compromising fuel/power efficiency or traction, and with gas prices what they are these days even another three miles per gallon matters in my car, and incorrect pressure in bicycle tires make for a harder ride and lower endurance. So instead of thinking that maybe this is a little over the top, I recommend you buy it. The price is certainly reasonable and I doubt you will regret it.
Review: Reliable, accurate, easy to read, ergonomic shape, appears quite rugged - This is a very solid, reliable and easy to use gauge that works well for both higher-pressure road bike tires and lower-pressure mountain bike tires, and for auto tires. It works with both Schrader and Presta valves, with a simple, one-click switch to go between these two standards. I really like the large display, which is much easier to read than the tiny display I had on another, older electronic gauge that eventually failed. I also like the swivel head that makes it easy to see the display from various angles. It's got a rugged feel to it (without being too heavy for bringing along on a MTB ride), and is the proper shape for holding it securely while using. It's a great device ... the best tire-pressure gauge I've ever owned. I only have two nitpicks: One thing that's not obvious is how to use the "bleed" or air release button. If you read the instructions, you'll be fine ... so don't toss them! Another nitpick: With a maximum 250 psi, this gauge can supposedly even handle pressure readings on suspension forks and shocks ... but I wouldn't buy it for that purpose. Since this is a press-on, rather than a threaded chuck, you get too much air loss from a shock to get an accurate reading (I tried.)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on Presta and Shrader valves?**
A: Yes. The yellow slider on top has both Shrader and Presta positions. It's easy to slip on and off without losing a significant amount of air, and the readout is very visible. The head swivels to make the gauge fit comfortably in your hand no matter what the angle of the valve. I've had this gauge for a year and definitely recommend.

**Q: How does the air release reading work on this?!  i press the release button and air is escaping but the psi doesn't lower on the readout.**
A: You have to be in the correct mode for this.  After first reading the pressure, press the button with the circle on it labeled "tune" then use the yellow air release button to let out air and the unit will automatically read the new pressure.

**Q: Does this work correctly with presta valves? i know the description says so, but other gauges also claim that and do not perform well with them**
A: Yes, it works with presta valves.  There is a setting for presta and a setting for  schrader.  Testing on a presta requires you to quickly get the guage on the valve.You must also remove the gauge quickly. It would be nice to have a presta guage that worked as easily as the guages do on the scrader valves, but I haven't found one.  This guage works fine on both types of valves

**Q: Does this gauge read low enough for Fat bikes 4-7 psi?**
A: It does read in the single digits but no decimals. So, if you're looking to fine tune to 1/2 or 1/4 psi increments, it isn't that precise. The Accu-Gage analog units can do that. However, I have one the goes to 15 psi max and reads in 1/4 psi increments and one that goes to 30 psi max, 1/2 psi increments and they read 1 full psi apart from each other. So, perhaps the fractional readings are pointless.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well for Schrader and can with Presta with modification
*by T***R on January 25, 2014*

No external tire gauge can measure tire pressure without some air loss. The is always the case because some air has to get into the gauge in order to make the pressure reading and the gauge can't put that air back into the tire when you remove it, no matter how talented you are. So those claiming to use this or any other external tire gauge without losing ANY air doesn't know what they are talking about. With the Topeak D2 Smart Gauge you can get it to work with a loss of only about 1 psi for a road bicycle tire and a negligible amount for a car tire, when using it with either a Schrader or presta valve. However, as others have observed, it is difficult to consistently achieve this with a presta valve. This is because the pin of the presta valve, unlike the Schrader valve, extends several millimeters beyond the body of the valve so that you must press the gauge on very quickly if you don't want to lose much air. The presta valve opens as soon as the gauge starts pressing down on the pin and the air keeps leaking out until the gauge is fully engaged and seals the air in, so the faster you are the less air will leak. With a Schrader valve the pin is flush or slightly below the housing so you can fully engage the gauge much quicker and with less air loss. To make matters worse, with the presta valve you have to push the gauge down on the pin in a very straight line lest the gauge catches on the top of the valve while the air continues to leak out. This can be very frustrating to say the least and is all the more so if you are trying to check the pressure after fixing a flat out on the road. People can claim all they want that with some practice and good technique they can nail it every time ... just wait until they try this at the side of the road, at night, with fingers numb from the cold. In spite of the problems with presta valves I would have kept the gauge anyway since I needed to replace the gauge I used for the car. I like using it for the car because you can rotate the bottom of the gauge so that it is easy to read the display regardless of whether the valve is at the 12:00, 3:00, 6:00, or 9:00 or any other position. The bleed feature is also useful for car tires (but too fast to be useful for road bikes). It also leaks much less air than my old gauge. But I did want to use it with my bicycles that have presta valves and I found a simple solution – use it with a presta to Schrader valve convertor! This does require a bit more time because you have to screw on and then remove the adapter (well, unless you don't mind the extra rotational weight unbalancing the wheel). I found that with my adapter I had to grind the end down 1.5 mm to bring the presta valve pin close enough to the top of the adapter so that the gauge will open the valve when pressed onto the adapter. Once I did that it works fine and I can get a reading with just 1 psi of loss every time, even under adverse conditions.
