Kappius' US-made pressure gauge available in three models

Published February 3, 2015

BOULDER, Colo. (BRAIN) — Kappius Components is offering three digital pressure gauge models designed for folks looking for the ultimate pressure accuracy.

The $159 pressure gauges are 100 percent made in the U.S. They have a Silca presta head with a bleed-off valve and claim to be accurate to plus-or-minus 1 percent with repeatable results. They run on a 9 volt battery that is included, and have a 20-minute automatic shutoff. Units are selectable between psi, kg/cm^2, bar, in HG, ft wc, kPa, oz/in^2, in wc, mbar, cm wc, or mm Hg. 

The three models: 

• Fat Bike: 0-15 PSI, 0.01 Resolution

• Cyclo-Cross/Low MTB: 0-30 PSI, 0.01 Resolution

• Cyclo-Cross/MTB: 0-50 PSI, 0.02 Resolution

The pressure limit on all models is twice the range.

Kappius' president, Brady Kappius, is a pro cyclocross racer who first built a gauge for himself. He posted a photo of his gauge on Facebook and after seeing a huge response decided to bring it to market. "Something for the true bike geek for sure," Kappius said.
