“super simple pressure gauge, activated by air pressure on the spring”
ah that IS clever!…
….though now im wondering how all other pressure gauges work, i was always under the impression it was by air pressure pushing on a spring?
Yes, but these ones go up to 11… 🙂
This one’s inline, which you don’t usually see. And I don’t think anyone’s made such a transparent gauge.
Not sure about the dog bowl, our dog manages to move his huge heavy porcelain bowl several feet during a single 30s meal.
At least we now have an answer to that age old question…is carbon fibre microwave-safe?
theres no denying, it [the shockpump] does look very nice 🙂
no it doesn’t
Removable cable guides? Who’d do something like that?
Okay so weve seen the removable cable guides when are we going to see some fully modular frames?
Ive patented that idea btw….
Honest.
I like that pressure gauge hose, the current bog standard dial shock pump is a pain getting in/out of a packed camelbak. Any ideas when the hose for tyre pumps will be available and cost?
