1mph off and you're complaining?! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] You can easily use a GPS to "calibrate them to be very accurate. I ran one through an entire harescramble season....never missed a beat. Get the billet clamp, a real piece of art.

Call trailtech and they will walk you thru the programming over the phone. It will take you about two minutes to program it this way.

What you have to keep in mind is that the trail tech is using a signal that is generated only once each time the wheel spins around. This is basically the distance around the outside edge of the tire. Which means, if your tire pressure differs from your buddy's tire pressure, you will get a different reading than he does. Or, even if you have the exact same tire pressure, but you have different amounts of tread on your tires, they will read different.

Try this method, determine what your current programmed number is.. lets just say 1625.... and when you ride 5 miles (actual miles, measured by gps, or known distance on county intersections) but your trailtech says you only rode 4.6 miles... here is how you adjust....

do the math to get your new programming number...... 5*1625/4.6 = new number = 1766

Hope this helps... once you get it spot on, remember to keep your tires at the same pressure.

Ride On.
