I have that same question, since I'm in the market for a new gauge. Common sense tells me to avoid the car/truck gauges with large diameter, long barrels; take the bike tire pressure once with one of those and it'll drop 5 psi, I'd bet.
But what about the short tubed dial type gauges that are a couple of bucks at the auto parts store?
