ABSTRACT:
A hardness testing device for a bicycle tire has a body with a surface thereon, an arm having a protrusion extending outwardly of the surface, a spring cooperative with a portion of the arm for resisting movement of the protrusion inwardly of the body when the protrusion contacts a surface of the tire, and an indicator cooperative with the arm for providing a humanly perceivable indication of movement of the protrusion relative to a hardness of the tire. The arm is pivotally mounted in or on the body.
