£5.80 for a gauge that measures MTB pressures accurately that fits a RennKompressor. 0-30 or 0-60 both fine you do need a second pump for road and tubeless inflation
Holly thread resurrection I know but @b33k34 any idea which of the sizes/fittings is required? The eBay link still works but doesn't select anything.
I do love my Rennkompressor but the 200 psi (which I can't get above 120 without jumping up and down) scale is sodding tiny and a long way off these days so a 0-100 would make much more sense for all I use it for.

Is on my eBay order.
Related note - anyone remember what the posh track pump was that was recently released with a variable scale to the gauge? I can't find anything on it . . . I'm sure it's out of budget but I'd like to consider it at least.
Yeah the £40 Park Tools one as said, is a bit crap.
I'd guess from a flat tyre to 25psi is approx 50 pumps.... which is quite a lot !!!!
I have Birzmann, pump head didn’t last too long but neither did the Lezyne that preceded it.
Bought a Hirame pump head for it which has been fantastic.

For about another fiver you can get one with a proper calibration certificate, and a fiver or so more than that you'll get fluid filled.
That's what i did anyway.
Think they were about 20 quid delivered. Maybe a little more.
I've got WIKA gauges on my Rennkompressors.
Holly thread resurrection...
Just noticed!

What’s the advantage of fluid filled?
It was an experiment when I did it but wouldn’t go back now.
The needle doesn't waggle about when pumping up. Generally a bit more robust when knocking around in the back of the car. Deal with temperature variation better (no condensation in the gauge). Most of the mechanism is protected from corrosion etc.
TBH, i'd probably stick with a dry gauge if you've already got it (wouldn't upgrade!) but it was such a small price increase at the time it seemed like a no brainer. And FWIW, the fluid filled gauges i bought were cheaper than i could find the stock SKS one for the Rennkompressor, which is an utter piece of garbage.
Mine was only an experiment too, but one i repeated twice... (long story, but i have two Rennkompressors.)

Is fluid filled preferable? I know nothing about these things.
Where did you get your WIKAs? Rennkompressors? Plural?
Wika gauges came from a local supplier (Schweeden) so not much use to you!
But it's just a 63mm diameter with 1/4" BSP back connection and chose your range to suit.
I ordered a Rennkompressor in an online sale (40 euros or something) then it went out of stock, the supplier said i could cancel, or wait until it came back in stock. I waited. And waited.
Then spotted a box of them in our local sports warehouse at 500sek, so i bought one, having completely forgotten i'd got one on backorder.
Eyes were rolled when the second, backordered, one turned up on the doorstep.
So i now have two.

I can imagine ;o)

I have a low pressure renn that lives in the car. A lezyne with a Hirami head at home for road bikes and installing tubeless with an Airshot. And an ancient Silca bought when they were reasonably priced that lives in the hall cupboard with the Bromptons.
