the guage on my road morph g isn't working. idk why. will this pump work with road tires? and does the guage actually move?? lol

It's supposed to, although I've noticed that it sometimes "jerks" along (doesn't move smoothly) - and yes, I use mine on road tires. From past experience, I know that Topeak is really good about supporting their products. If yours is defective, call their customer service!

I used it to inflate the tires on my Class A motorhome, unfortunately the 100+ pressures were too much for this unit and it overheated and died. It is a very heavy duty pump, but still not up to the task of inflating high pressure tires.

I get a different reading from every gauge I use. . .TD seems consistent between tires, though. Maybe battery?

Error on the safe side. Take your tires to 110 and check with a different gauge and you will be happy.

I've owned both, used for MTB. Like someone said before, different design on tire gauge, and frankly the MTB version is easier to read. both are great, but the road morph broke on me. MTB version is beefier and def more appropriate for MTB, probably because of the volume required for the significantly fatter tires. You're just pumping a lot more. It's a bit heavier...but it's awesome. you'll *almost* be stoked for a flat!

I have this in-line gauge, between the pump and the valve. I've noticed the cheap pump fights the tire pressure when trying to read it with the gauge. Not sure I like the pump; I suspect it is the pump/gauge that's the issue - not necessarily the 90 adapter.

I do not agree with this statement, I have purchased one of this and it's been working properly since day one. Please note that this is an "emergency" pump intended to be used when you're replacing the tire, it is not meant to be your main pump.

It should pump .. period. It is hooked up wrong(No Offense)or it is defective. My advice? Just send it back .. FWIWFinal, I was unempressed with mine .. Just got rid of it in part .... because I took to long to qualify for a refund.

The gauge helps to know when you have put enough Red Tek R12 in to the system. I had high hopes for this product but had my mechanic try this and it would only work while accelerating and caused my compressor to die. Thank God for pick and pulls! Was able to find a compressor that had been converted and restored my air condition for 100. (+ this failed product) Hope the best to you

My understanding is that the MT morph has a thicker pump chamber making it more ideal for larger MTB tires. I mounted mine on the outside of my down tube which protects the bike from rocks and leaves both water bottle mounts available for use.

"Do you have to do something special for the gauge to work?"Yep. You do have to do something special. Return the pump. I'm assuming that air is actually getting into the tube?

Yes... that is the best guage for a 37 psi tire. right in the middle of its capability. More accurate.

How is it used? you mean how to use it? Just plug the tire inflator to the air hose. and hold end of hose to the valve stem to pump air. how is the quality? It works good on car tire. it pump air quite fast. i've had it for about 2 months now. it still pump air as it was new. gauge is still reading accurately. i've used it to pump a portable air can to 100psi. I mean it works good for that price on sale. I like it.

I returned mine. I originally bought it for my bike tires and it was the wrong type of air pump. So it might be the wrong type for you too.

Thats odd. I use a standard bike pump to air our tires. Maybe you have the wrong attachment on your pump?

I no longer have this pump because it broke, but when I got my new fork I aired it up to 60 with this pump but I can't remember if it went higher than that or not, but if you need to be precise with the pressure, then you don't want this pump because the gauge does not move smoothly. It would stick, and with each pump it would jump up about 5lbs or so. I would guess the gauge is accurate to about 1 or 2 lbs give or take.

I think so, however please don't quote me. Check owners manual. If Guage shows error have unit checked ASAP for defective operation. This unit is very straightforward and should be simple to have repaired at the local level.
