F.N.G Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hey guys. Just want to ask, how much psi Should I run in my tyres, front and back? Here are what tyres/tubes I'm running Back: Maxxis creepy crawler 19", with a Monty 19" tube. Front: Kenda Small Block 8 20 x 1.95" with a Monty 20" tube. I weigh about 7 and a half stone. Thanks, Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Reynolds Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 1000psi Its personal preference. Some people run higher pressures, some run lower. What I do is pump it up to 30psi, then let it down till it feels right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex-trials-boy Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Dont care what psi you rune just run what ever feels good for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrialsIsHard Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 It's all personal preference and what kind of riding you do.. natural on spiky rocks will require a different pressure to doing manuals for example. Like martin said, let it down till it feels right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 If you're gonna let it down till it feels right, start from 50 minimum because high pressures are cool... Then again, being as little as you are at the moment Tom, you'll probably only need about 3psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aener Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Stick with about 20 for a while, it's what most people seem to run. Don't make a conscious decision about pressure... Leave it until you think, "Gee, I wish I could roll for a bit longer!" or "Golly gosh, these impacts are so jarring!". Change accordingly.

Alle.C Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 as said before, it's personal. I run 25psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azarathal Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I thought that today when i was hitting the rim on the floor when preloading for sidehops Sidehop to rear I'll rim out on take off and yet doing railgaps with the same psi is fine.

Sounds like you're either really fat, or you're just running insanely low PSI's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
