4 yrs out of road pilot 4s I changed to road pilot 5s not much driving till after Christmas , I changed to Dunlop road smart before the 4s which I did not like at all , could feel the road coming up the pegs and handle bars change after a few weeks , bought a tyre pressure monitoring why I don't know but I like gadgets <img src="

I’m intrigued by that gadget. Do the caps come off easily to put air in?

Cool
But the temp of the cap is not really the temp of the tire I suppose.
As long as the pressure is correct, that's the main thing.

Just a caution, always use metal valve stems as the rubber ones will fatigue with TPMS. Several choices out there. Most convenient ones are t-stems, which will save you from removing the TPMS sensor when wanting to air up.
