Tyre pressure adjustments

[MR_W]

I try to keep my tyre pressures in line with the manual so 36 front, 42 rear, and that needs doing regularly. The problem is I have big hands, so how do people cope with doing the front wheel? 2 massive discs make access awkward but I was wondering how people deal with their access to the tyre valve?

Use a small gauge.

I just make sure the discs are cold first and struggle

It's more getting the pump on and off. I have a traditional tyre gauge I can use fine, it's more getting pump on and off quick enough I don't end up losing all the air I pumped in as I can't get my hands in properly.

I always over inflate it to solve that issue then let the air out

Ah I had been doing that so on right track I guess.

I use a side access pressure gauge and an angle valve attachment to inflate as below

got to agree with jrh get an angled valve adaptor to screw on first i dont advise leaving one on all the time tho as they do seem to let air by a little a lot of the time but ideal for checking tyre pressures and inflating them

I just bash my knuckles!

I use an angled adapter because I'm going soft.

Yeah...angled valve......so much easier.....

I tried those angled valves. Wasn't convinced by them so went back to the awkward hand fiddling between the brake discs.
