Schwalbe AIRMAX digital pressure gauge

Schwalbe AIRMAX digital pressure gauge

The digital pressure gauge is very accurate. It measures pressure up to 11 bar and is intended for Presta and Schrader valves. It also measures classic valves, but only with a Schwalbe insert. Tip: check the pressure at least once a month with a gauge. The widespread habit of checking pressure by pressing with your fingers is very unreliable. Even at half the recommended pressure the tyres are overloaded. The result of this widespread bad habit is a disproportionately increased rolling resistance and premature wear of the tyre. Hold the button pressed: switch on. Delete > switch off > reset. Press the button briefly: selection of measuring units (bar, PSI, kPa, kg/cm2). The correct pressure depends on the width of the tyre and its load. The table is indicative for a person weighing 75 kg. If you are heavier or ride with luggage, increase the pressure. If you are lighter or want more comfort, you can lower the pressure. However, never exceed the maximum and minimum values stated on the tyre. Check the pressure at least once a month!
