TPMS that works

Would recommend you have a look at this site for a replacement system
I have fitted it to my bike successfully.

Thank you. I wanted to order a set from 4x4direct, but they are out of stock. This is a good alternative.

Really like it.  Can you ride through mud and sand with it?

Of course you can. The wheel sensors sits tight, and the handlebar unit is properly sealed.

The valve sensor counter locks with a nut. A spanner is supplied to loosen the counter lock nut when needed.

The display unit charges via a USB cable. Easy.
The unit lights up each time the wheels start rolling, and switches off as soon as you park. How I don't know, but it works very well. How often do you have to recharge? In 2 months the display unit charge hasn't dropped yet.

Nice getting this information as I've ordered mine and it's on the way.

How do you inflate tires?  Do you need to take the sensors off the valve?  It looks from some of the photos like the silver piece might be a cap?

The ones that fit on the cap are fine for tube & tubeless but as you can imagine that you have to pressure the tyres, put on the cape & see that they are correct pressure.
If not repeat & repeat until you get it right.
With the on-board internal fitted that is not required.
The module is also specifically build to fit on the bike & is powered by the bike power supply therefore again no USB charging required.
As soon as you switch on the ignition the display is immediately active
Did a ride to J Bay today and it worked perfectly once again.
Below a couple pics if you wish to peruse it.
Priced at R 1000.00 + R 50.00 delivery its worth the effort to fit and Internal batteries last for approximately 5 years.
I should have done this years ago.

Looks nice, but won't work with tubed tyres.
