I just bought these since I saw a post about them. So far I think it's pretty cool that instead of having to check the air every time before I ride that I can just look at this. I found it to be a little pain in the a$$ putting air in the tires. I have the theft deterrent lock nuts w/ mine. That's why I say it's a pain in the a$$. Otherwise it's a pretty straight forward system. After airing it asks you to pair up w/ the sensors and your phone but it's pretty quick. The sensors have batteries in them and mine had another pair of batteries in the box as well. All in all I like the system. As soon as it's nice enough out I'm going to see how it is on the road.

I have had mine on for a couple thousand miles now and I love them. I left the lock nuts off as I can't imagine someone stealing them.

Have any of you with the system checked your air as soon as you completed a ride.

I'd be interested in knowing how much the pressure increases.

I have seen increases of 15%.

Just received and installed mine on steel valve stems last week... One trip so far on a sunny, 60* day at mainly highway speeds averaging around 60-70 MPH... Increases were front 36/38.5 and rear 40/44...
