jordan allsop Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 (edited) like the pic but look like you need a bit more psi though but appart from that keep it up. Edited March 13, 2010 by jordan allsop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alistair14 Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 is that all you have to say? about my tyre psi? im comfy with them atm, like i said, they're at 20, which is hard and good enough for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multi tasking male Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 is that all you have to say? about my tyre psi? im comfy with them atm, like i said, they're at 20, which is hard and good enough for me... how long you been riding ? if not that long then i would say good but if for a long time i would say bad but everytone has to start somewere. try running a harder tyre pressure then you wont have to be so smooth and you can concerntrate on what your doing more and then when you feel comftable then try be a bit smoother, harder pressures may make you smoother anyway because you have to absorb the pressure from the drop more. Try puting it up to 25 or 30, just to stop you from making a flat spot in the rim or dent (like i did, now run 40psi on a 24", perfect ) chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
