FOBO Bike 2 TPMS (Black) - Wireless Tire Pressure Monitoring System with Bluetooth 5.0 | Real-Time Tire Pressure Sensor | Easy DIY Installation for Motorcycle | Compatible with iOS & Android

My motorcycles are not modern enough to have built in tire pressure gauges (TPMS). It has happened to me twice now that I have developed slow leaks that I don't discover until the next morning when I'm in a hurry to get somewhere and was then faced with a few hours of fixing, replacing, etc. I purchased these in hopes that next time I develop a puncture with a slow leak I will be alerted in time to address it before I'm in a real pinch. Moreover, it constantly monitors tire pressure so you know when it's time to add a little air between your normal service intervals. The bluetooth sensors communicate directly with your phone and you can set up alerts that will really get your attention in the event of a sudden breach or leak. They are pretty easy to install with a little bit of work setting up the parameters in the app, but it's not too bad. The app itself is ok but it could be designed a little sexier and more intuitive, but overall it's fine since you won't really mess with the app unless something happens. The sensors themselves aren't much to look at and they're a little ugly in my opinion, but still pretty amazing considering all the technology they packed into these things. I was so happy with the first set that I got another for my second bike, which is why they get 5 stars despite being sort of an eyesore . They come in a four pack so if you are going to use these on more than two wheels, get that instead. Pros * Easy to install. * Provide great information and alerts. * Nice upgrade for vehicles without TPMS. Cons * Not the prettiest addition to a motorcycle wheel. * App could be a bit slicker and easier to navigate.

TPMS failed on my 2009 Goldwing. Dealership wants $900 + parts to fix. This $60 product is a fabulous substitute. Even better since it's working before you ride. The app took a bit to get everything entered. Screen issues/login problems. When it was paired, perfect. Pressures matched my stick tire gauge. When I took them off to measure pressures with the stick, the alarm went off. I did get a message when my air pressure did drop (re-inflated and tightened up the device). Excellent buy. Never had TPMS on a bike, but it did work on 2 of my pickups with rapidly deflating tires (had time to pull over safely). Happy with this safety item purchase.

I haven't had the Fobo Bike 2 for long but I am so surprised by how well it works that I had to write this now. However, I will update this review if I have any problems with it in the future, especially if it leaks air, which is a concern I have with it's design. I debated whether to buy one of these for weeks. The reviews were good but I had purchased a similar TPMS but it was one that read out on a separate device, not through a phone app. It was horribly inaccurate and I returned it. Another reason for my hesitation to buy this was that very few reviewers check the accuracy of it's readouts with a separate air pressure gauge known (or thought to be) accurate. Many reviewers just assume that the Fobo is accurate but, as anyone who works on vehicles knows, air pressure gauges can produce wildly different and inconsistent readings. The only way you will know if an air pressure gauge is truly accurate would be to check it with a calibrated standard - probably at a government standards location but who has access to that? I have six air pressure gauges - three simple stick types and three gauge types. Two of the gauge types read far different pressures from the stick gauges. So which one is correct? Are any of them correct? Who knows? However, the third gauge type pressure gauge I have agrees with my stick gauges so my best guess is they and the gauge that agrees with them are closest to being accurate but, of course, they could all be wrong. But the point is, air pressure gauges (including stick types) are notorious for giving different and inconsistent readings. But all we can do is try to find out which gauge is most accurate and consistent and use it. Surprisingly, it appears that my cheap stick gauges are accurate but the two of my gauge type (round) gauges are inaccurate. But we have to make our best guess. Anyway, I decided to order a Fobo but I was very skeptical that it would be accurate. Before installing the sensors, I took readings of my tires with what I think is my most accurate tire gauge. I expected the to see that the Jobo read completely different pressures. Then, since I run my front tire at 38 pounds (cold) and 44 in my rear tire and I've always had good results if, say, the Fobo gave me pressures several pounds off from what my gauge said, I would just think of the the Fobo readings as really being what my gauge said. In other words, I would compensate but I really didn't like the idea of that. To my surprise and almost amazement, the Fobo read .1 pound off on the rear tire and .3 pounds off on my front tire readings compared to my separate gauge. That's phenomenal! And even that tiny difference might change if I simply took a second reading with my separate gauge. In short, the Fobo was reading almost exactly what my separate gauge was reading. Not only was I surprised but I was so happy. It also indicated that my separate gauge is probably accurate. As of now, I am so happy I bought the Fobo. As anyone who owns a bagger knows, to check air pressure, you have to get flat on the ground, check to see where the air valve is, get up, move the bike a bit and try again until you can access the valve. It helps to remove the saddlebag but it's still a pain. And that means that you probably aren't checking air pressure very often which can be dangerous. Several weeks ago, my bike seemed to slip in corners - almost as if I was on ice. Sure enough! It turned out the air pressure was off by about 5 pounds in the rear tire. But now I can check the air pressure without all the hassle before every ride. There is one thing I don't like about the Fobo. That is that the app says it needs to track your location ALL THE TIME. That makes no sense to me and the explanation in the manual does not make it clear why that is the case. Nor do the explanations in the Q&A section here. But the solution is simple. First, set your permissions so the location is tracked ONLY when the app is being used. (If you deny location tracking completely, the app won't work.) When you do that, the app will complain that you must set it to ALWAYS track your location. But if you just hit the cancel button, the app works fine despite what the notice said. Also, the app can't be on when bluetooth is turned off so if you don't need bluetooth on when you're not using the app, just turn it off and no location tracking can take place. In fact, if you don't want real-time TPMS while riding, you can just check the air pressure before you ride and then turn off bluetooth which turns off the app. That's up to you. Again, I will update this review if I run into any issues. The one thing I will watch carefully for is leakage at the sensors. After all, they are pressing down on the core of the air valve so it's very important that the seal on the sensor is good. And since you have to remove the sensor to add air, the seal could wear over time. A solution to that would be to get one of those double air valves so you don't have to remove the sensor to add air. I may do that but only when I change tires and re-balance them. I do that myself. From reviews, the sensors themselves don't seem to affect wheel balance noticeably but that double air valve probably would throw off balanc.

Easy to install covers for tire air valve. Cap size is larger than normal caps but not too unsightly. Item is durable as it has withstood many miles and different weather without failing. Battery life is very good lasts a long time, have not had to change them since last season. Readings are accurate and warnings can be set to alert you of low or high pressure. The app is relatively easy to navigate and offers customizable features. Allows you to view tire pressure on your smart phone. A good safety product for your motorcycle.

Here’s a polished Amazon-style review based on everything you said: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **Excellent TPMS – Reliable, Accurate, and Easy to Use** I am genuinely impressed the FOBO 2 Bike TPMS). It is a really good product and excellent value for money. It was very easy to fit, and setup through the FOBO 2 Bike app took only a few minutes. The system works seamlessly and connects to my iPhone automatically, updating roughly every 10 seconds when you are within a few metres of the bike, without me needing to do anything. In terms of accuracy, it’s spot on. I compared the readings to my manual tyre pressure gauge (which I know to be accurate) and they matched perfectly. You can also set custom alerts for high or low pressure, with separate thresholds for each if you want (I do use this feature and find it useful). This is especially useful in winter when colder temperatures naturally bring pressures down. The system even gives you tyre temperature readings, which is unexpectedly useful. I went for the silver version, and while they are slightly noticeable if you look closely, they don’t look out of place at all on the chrome wheels of my Triumph Bonneville T120. The build quality is solid and they feel very secure once fitted. The FOBO 2 Bike app is excellent. It is intuitive, stable, and not glitchy in the slightest. You can also use it to monitor multiple bikes if you install sensors on more than one, which is a great feature. Overall, I’m extremely happy with this product. It does exactly what it promises, does it reliably, and does it well. Highly recommended for peace of mind and effortless tyre pressure monitoring.

Funkar kanon bra är mycket nöjd

Um bom produto, boa relação custo/benefício.

This system is an excellent way to monitor real-time tire pressure. Screw the sensors on, download the app, pair the sensors and you’re done! The little plastic lock nuts to secure the sensors on the valve stems are a nice touch but annoying to have to back them off to adjust pressure. (They require a special plastic wrench that you need to carry). Set the low pressure alarm and put your phone in your pocket. If you lose pressure, a VERY LOUD alarm will get your attention. If you’re anal about adjusting tire pressures, you’ll want a handlebar mount for your phone to keep an eye on things. As the bike has to move a bit to “wake” the sensors, setting pre-ride cold pressure is a bit of a pain. Spares in the box include an extra set of sensor batteries, an extra lock nut wrench and a thoughtful pair of split rings to attach the wrench to your keys. Great value, well executed and cheap insurance against a tire-related emergency.

Un producto de calidad, funciona MUY bien
