curt-echo-control Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 What tyre pressures do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeriTrial Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) On the front 1.2-1.5 bar and the rear 1.1-1.3 bar. But these usually depend on the type of the tyre and the tube and naturally your weight is important as well.

fuerstpueckler Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 On the front 1.2-1.5 bar and the rear 1.1-1.3 bar. But these usually depend on the type of the tyre and the tube and naturally your weight is important as well. Also the modality you ride is important. The best way for you is to test it out by yourself! Greetings.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trials D Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) I have never really checked tyre pressure, But the best way to get the right pressure for me is by fully inflating it then when I go out riding and deflate it, to what pressure I am most comfortable at.I basically just keep on trying different pressures until I get the one that is right for me! Hope I didnt ramble on about nothing! Edited January 9, 2009 by Trials D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogo Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Use the force...Also if you're having problems with grip or whatever on a certain maneuvere repeat it at different pressures to see which gives the best results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sstein Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Anywhere between 15-30psi will be fine depending on your style and what you ride. I have run about 8psi once but the tyre peeled away from the rim whenever I turned on the back wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
