Has anyone a recommendation for an ACCURATE tyre pressure gauge? Preferably small so it fits in a TVR Chimaera glove pocket. All the ones (eg from Halfords)I've tried vary by 2-3lb/sq.in.

Ride Magazine did a test on these a few years ago (ride tests really are independant !) and found that most of the cheaper digital and analogue ones (sub £70ish) are pretty crap they ended up rating a £3.00 mechanical slide type (looks like a stainless steel pen with a scale on the slider) alongside a £200 Digital Snap on and said that the repeatability and accuracy of the cheapy one was fantastic because it was so simple and couldn't go wrong.
