Sam Brockway (Xtreen) Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 What do you guys have your tire pressures at (very roughly)I know in trials your meant to have them flatter than normal... But I've seen some videos of riders with practically no air!Surely it would pinch the tube? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soon to be Rowan Johns Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) It is really down to preference, less air = less bouncemore air = less punctures, less damage to rim, and better rolling distanceIts really down to trial and error of what you prefere,I have mine quite high, at around 15psihope that helpsAymon Edited November 24, 2009 by Soon to be Rowan Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliet Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Hi, well it depends on what size bike you ride (20", 24", 26") and how heavy you are. Iam eight stone and i ride a twenty inch bike and i run 20 psi in the front and 16 psi in the back i do not no if this will help but i hope it does. Thanks Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
315r Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Is possible that 26 needs more presure than 20?When i rode mi 20 I had more rebound, never punctured, i think 20 tire was more "fat" than 26...Now, with my 26 i have to inflate more and more to prevent damage for my rims and punctures......

Mikey-uk Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 When I got back from Reading last sunday I was running about 5psi, it felt nice but, because I wasnt comfortable running it this low its now at 25. I'll lower it again tomorrow but for now i'll keep it pumped up more 'cos i'm gunna try use it to get places xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
