Find a pressure on your pump that works well for you and stick with that. A good pump should have a pretty good gage, and a hand held gage is probably not worth much. I dont know if you have presta or schrader but those auto parts store schrader gages are kinda junky. Was your friend using the dial kind of gage?
On my mtb I run 35psi rear/40psi front on a tubless/stans system with no problems and I weigh 215.
I bought a floor pump with a gauge on it. Someone else riding with me tested his pressure with a gauge after I pumped it up and he said I was low by 5PSI on a mtn bike tire.
I'm just curious if there are any gauges out there that people feel are truly reliable. Brands? Digital Vs Analog? Should I just go by feel?
Any feedback would be appreciated.
