FOBO …. LaMonster sells them.

Fobo 2

A Slime "no air loss" tire gauge.

Do you have a Garmin GPS mounted on the Spyder? Consider their TPS solution.

I looked at their site but had the impression they were just for 2 wheel. CORECTION: They're for 3 wheel also.

Thanks to every one that had pertinent information to the question.

The Garmin TPMS looks like a good add-on if you have a compatible Zumo but they are a bit pricey. All recommend you replace your valve stems with all metal regardless of what you decide to get.

That's one of the things I like about the FOBO 2 system. So small and light it works well with the rubber valve stems.

A word of caution on the FOBO 2 on a 2020 Spyder. I don't know if 2021 model year kept the same tire rim. This is from Lamonster's website:

These will not work on the BRP Shamrock wheels with out changing the valve stem (Stock stem is too short for Fobo).

My 2020 has the shamrock rims. I have not investigated what it will take to change the valve stem.

Slightly off topic, but not by much. I just installed my FOBO2 and I didn’t realize until I was picking up tools and trash that there are locking nuts in the box which I didn’t install. Wouldn’t be that big of a deal to install them, but I was wondering if most everyone uses the locking nuts or not?

You don't 'need' them for the caps to stay on. The gasket friction holds them. They are supposed to help deter thief but - really?
They may not fit on your OEM stems anyway.

Thanks for the quick response. That’s kind of what I thought...not really necessary but wanted to double check the knowledge base here. I didn’t look to see if they’d fit in the short little valve stems BRP uses and I guess at this point I don’t even care if the locking nuts fit or not roflmao

All this talk about the FOBO TPMS got me to stop and change the batteries with the extra set that came with it. Wonder if I will get over a year and a half on this set?

My original FOBO2 batteries died at just under 2 years a couple months ago. Changed them and all was/is well again. But I rarely used the "logged in" feature of the app while riding. Would check the pressures using the app on my iPhone at stops, or before starting rides, etc. I don't "live monitor" the pressures while riding.

Does anyone have the FOBO 2 on a sea to sky? Do they fit without changing valve stems?

I do and yes they fit with no problem.

 

[eschmid2]

Awesome! thanks I have both on order - the FOBO 2 and the new sea and sky!

 

[Adventurer]

You will love them both!

Are the shamrock rims installed on the Chrome Edition RTLs only, but the Dark models have another type? Just wondering if the 2020 RTL Dark model can use the FOBO2 TPMS setup? The rubber valves look pretty short on that rim as well so wondering if anyone can confirm?
