Mtchell Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I have been rinding in total just over a year and i have tried all diferent tyre presures is there a best tyre presure???? I run just under 20psi but i weght 13stone, so depending on how much you weight, how hard you land, how high the drop there really is no correct answer to this question just run them at a comfortable psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben John-Hynes Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 There's an unwritten rule that your tyres must be at 25psi. EVERYONE does it/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_Fel Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 It does my nut in when people tell new members to use the search function. This is "Trials-Forum" not "Trials-Database" How are these people meant to get validated when they can't ask a simple question without getting bitched at? Just answer the lads question instead of telling him go and find it out himself. It's a lot nicer to have someone respond to your question rather than having to look through old posts. This is meant to be a community where we help each other out, not a database of information. Anyway I usually run about 15-18psi in the back and about 20-25psi in the front. It really is down to what feels best for yourself though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends what mood you catch people in. I've noticed a some people like ganging up on people too Probably the best thing to do is just ignore them and not rise the to the bait but that can be a bit of a task when its so easy to argue back ha ha.

chris4stars Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 some sweeping statements coming out here!! if its any consolation, ive been on here for a short while and posted a fair amount...never had a problem yet! i think most of the time its not a case of people being 'knobs', alot of people on here just dont suffer fools lightly...at the end of the day though, its the same guys (and girls?!) who have a huge amount of knowledge to help you as and when you need it...just need to play the game, read the guidelines and follow where possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_Fel Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 sigh - *gives up* I can see where both of you are coming from. It would be easy for him to search and find what he's looking for but if everyone did that then there wouldn't be half as many posts. I think if a question isn't on the first page then there should be no problem in asking it. It is a pain when people are constantly asking the same question but instead of just telling them to use the search function why not do it for them and show them the results? It would be a boring place if everyone just read over old posts and never posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a boring place if everyone just read over old posts and never posted. true...to a point i think... a question as unspecific and un-thought out as this topic is bound to get some negative response though....i tried to help the guy, spend time writing out what i thought was a helpful and thought out comment, and i get one line reply with some daft comment! of course you cant say that about every topic. noone minds questions like these when they are specific to the rider, or if the poster has made a little amount of effort to try and find out the question themselves (just a little! - as the guidelines suggest) its all very well finding posts about the topic...but it can be tricky to find the reply that actually suits you. im sure ive made a few topics that the answer may be hidden away in some old topic.

Al_Fel Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah I do agree with you. Not everyone is going to read all of the guide lines etc because most people are too lazy to do things like that. I think its better to accept that most people will just post here willy nilly and you've just got to guide them rather than attack them.
