:) My new x2GT has a recommended air pressure of 4.0 lbs air:) .
Does any body know any air gage meter accurate at that low pressure.
The bests I can find are electronic one and the lowest they measure is 5.0
I am not sure what kind of reading you get in a lower one.
Thanks in advance for any input

Look for an ATV Tire Gauge.

eBay, and stores that sell ATVs, and places like Cabellas, etc.

Best ones are "mechanical" - although electronic ones are available.

I have no experience with either -- just found them by Googling.

See http://66.241.204.36/DialTireGauges.cfm. Their 15 psi gauges are accurate to +-0.5 psi at 4 psi. I use one on my i180. The readings are consistent and the bleed valve makes it easy to adjust down to the right pressure. As a plus, they are made in America at a good price.

I also use one of their bigger gauges for my cars - they're quite handy.

Glen, which one of them (angle) you are using?
This one looks great and I agree, the bleed valve is very nice
Thanks

I'm using the Accu-Gage S Series with a swivel angle and a maximum pressure of 15 psi. The low-pressure gauge is $2 more, so the one I have should cost $13.50.
