My 5 year old Bikemaster 0-60 lbs dial gauge I bought from Cycle gear stopped registering anything recently. I would like a small compact gauge that reads 0-50 lbs. My valve stems are hard to reach and the next time I need tires I'll have the 45 degree stems installed. And don't want to pay more than say $25 to $30.

Hands down, especially for the money. Wife's V-star has those stupid straight valve stems...

I have 90 degree stems on my Triumph. Night and day better than the old straight ones on my Yamaha. I just tuck one of the small SLIME brand mini gauges from Wal Mart in a small storage compartment where my fuze puller tool was.
I use something very similar to the Autometer 2160. it holds the pressure until you release it. mine is the ford motorsport version, but very similar. I like it ALOT

I bought the Joeracing #32307 5-60 dial gauge after researching several different gauges. It has a 17 inch hose with 2 different chucks, one a swivel, a bleed off feature, and a glow in the dark face. It was less than $25 shipped from Amazon and it got good reviews. It isn't as compact as the small gauges but it should fit nicely in one of my saddlebags.
I have had the previous version of this one: http://roadgear.com/digital-tire-gauge-p-40.html for like 14-15 years. Nothing fancy, but very good value for money, and plenty accurate.
