hi guys i'm new here. daniel from new zealand.

the only person i can so far relate my tyre pressure is to moo moo. both are 30.

y's everyone's tyre pressure so low? i don't have a trials bike, but a mountain bike. is that the reason?

neways gud to be here

Hey, I have my rear tire at about 12 PSI only, I only weigh 7 stone though, so it's nice and bouncy for me

For the front, less than that, 8? or so. I go to front wheel a fair bit aswell but im not likely to dent a front rim.

basically it's a lot easier to keep balanced if the tyre's nearly flat, you get more grip as well but it does slow you down and dramatically increases the likelyhood of getting pinch-flats and dents in your rim.

mod tyres especially have massively thick sidewalls which makes up for a lot of the missing air so running 7 or 8 psi in the back doesn't necessarily mean you're grinding along on your rim all the time. dunno about stock cos ive never asked anyone.

if you want silly pressures look at bmxers - i used to run about 80psi but i think i saw tyres that'll take up to 120 fairly recently. they must roll proper fast..

[new_to_trials]

If you are just starting trial like be put them both at 25-30psi till you become good and are a lot more smother on the rear and front.Then go on a nice low psi that feels rigth to your weigth style off riding and what you ride on street,woods,park

Tell me about it.The tyre you are refering to is a Skidmark from Hoffman Bikes and it's best run at 120psi(what i run them at Lol) I ride stock and as a beginner i ride 30psi in both front and rear Maxxis HiRoller slow reezaay and Minion Dh. The jump/street bike i have runs 80psi in a set of Halo twin rails.

hello

I run my front at 15 and back at 18-20

Bhups.

[MesaMan]

Seems no one has brought rim width and tyre into the equation it's a pretty useless topic. I run 47mm rear with Maxis and am about 25psi on the rear, but I am an F.B.

[Swize]

I run about 13 rear and bout 10 up frount .

[VariotiboXS]

uh, maybe thats where i go wrong then, i run like 40 front n rear haha ill try 25 i don't like going low onf ront, gives me that squishy feeling when i turn

[ft will boy]

hi

i have about 25 to 30 psi in my rear trye and roughly 15 in my front i quite like having a soft front trye so when i land badly e.g on my front wheel it doesn't hurt as much lol

[clockwork]

yous lot are wimps

45psiR

35psiF

hard tyers all the way

[steve sturt]

What pressure do you have your front and rear tires at?

Thanks Allen

I run mine just hard enough. Dont know what pressure that is, but its still bouncy enough to feel slow and controlable, but it doesnt blow out.

[Dan6061]

about 17(ish)

[Sam Oliver]

I run 20psi rear normally (rocks etc) but depends on what im riding.

For mud & slippy banks i would half this. Still seems a lot compared

to moto trials i use to run 3.5 psi on the rear.

[John Shrewsbury]

60 front and rear

[Luke Drewery]

30 front

25 back

Good for everything then.

[Tomm]

About 25 in the rear (stops it folding you see) and around 20 in the front. I would run less in the rear if I could though.
