[QUOTE="jbjamn, post: 1369479, member: 50080"] One more reason not to be such a procrastinator. Last fall I purchased the FOBO with their Tees. Since I was trying my darndest to squeeze a bit more valuable riding time before our Wisconsin winter, I put the system on my "project shelf" and promptly forgot about it. Fast forward to this week when I read about the FOBO saving you. I went out last night and while mounting a new Avon 3d xm rear tire in prep for this weekends IBA 1500 mile ride. I had a bit of an issue getting the things to sync with my phone, as a last resort I read the instructions... I uninstalled the FOBO TIRE app and installed the FOBO BIKE app. Way better. I drove to work, everything looked good. Was walking out the door towards my bike and my phone sounds like a WWII depth charge. It says my rear tire is dangerously low. I figure the system must be whacked out. Grabbed my air gauge and it didn't have enough air to read out.. FOBO said 3.8 pounds. To make a long story short, used my patch kit, fixed my flat and had time to get it fixed leaving tomorrow morning. Had I not had the FOBO installed I would have kicked it off the center stand and started to take off, breaking the bead and possibly ruining my brand new tire. I echo an earlier statement, best $95 I have spent on the bike. [/QUOTE]
