advrider Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I came across an interesting advertisement a few days ago. It claimed that their product, TireGuard™ is “The Ultimate Motorcycle Safety System.” Well, that’s a pretty significant claim. So I decided to spend a few minutes of my life reading the ad to see what the system does. TireGuard Is The World’s Safest Tire Pressure System? It seems that TireGuard is a tire pressure monitoring device. In fact, the maker’s advertisement says that TireGuard™ is “The world’s safest tires (sic) pressure system. 100% Guaranteed.” As I read through the marketing data, it became clear that this product is not being produced in a country where English is their primary language. But that doesn’t mean that the product isn’t of good quality. TireGuard™ claims that their system is/does (quoted from their advertisement): Extremely Comfortable Increase fuel economy Extend Tires Life Waterproof & Durable They also claim that TireGuard™ has helped thousand(s) of motorcyclists to improve their riding experience. The TireGuard system components and capabilities. So what components do you get if you purchase a TireGuard System? First, you receive two valve stem caps that sense tire pressure. According to TireGuard™, the pressure sensing caps work with both rubber and steel valve stems. The caps send your tire’s pressure info to a small display you can mount to your handlebars. Although they don’t provide the display’s dimensions, it looks about 1.5″ wide by 2″ long. TireGuard™ claims that the system can be set to measure any pressure from 5 to 90 PSI (0.3 to 6.2 BAR). They say that all you have to do is “configure your metrics from Bar/PSI and set your desires (sic) pressure.” In addition to your tire’s pressure, the display also provides a clock and a battery level indicator. Battery or solar charging Speaking of power, the system is powered by an unstated size battery. But there is also a solar version which apparently self recharges when left in the sun. TireGuard™ is priced at $44.99 as a battery-powered unit. However, if you choose the solar-powered unit, the price rises to $54.99. So what do you think about the TireGuard system? Do you think that TireGuard™ is just a gimmick? Or is it a product that could be useful for those who don’t regularly check their tire pressures? And, if the system’s quality is good at the prices stated above, is the system a good value, and would you be interested in purchasing one? Let us know in the comments below. TireGuard™ has not paid or given anything in return for this article. Vezi sursa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
