Flexible Tire Gauge

[Soupy1957]

J&P had a decent price for a flexible tire gauge, with a tread wear inductor. Helps getting to the rear tire valve stem without hacking to snake thru the brake disc. Anyone put 90 degree valve stems on? How are they workin out for ya?

Found a guy who makes heat shields outa leather, that drape over the frame, under the seat. Makes a difference in traffic jam situations on hot summer days. No more leg burns!

Do the heat shields match the seat? Any pics?

I'll let you judge.........(by the way, the seller of these does a variety of decorative stitchings if desired. I just chose plain ones): image attached

The shield looks good.
I have the 90 deg valve stem on my bike. It came with them and it makes it easy to check and add air.
