April 13, 201016 yr I know there's always talk of the magic 4 psi in the trials world. but what do most of you run front an rear and do you change pressures for different conditions? Tony
April 13, 201016 yr 4 psi Rear in dry conditions, 3.5 or even 3 in slippy conditions. Front around 7 all conditions.
April 13, 201016 yr Modern bike, modern tyres, normal body weight -4psi rear - 5.5 psi front. Drop rear for very soft and muddy going or if riding easier routes. Check pressures if change in temps - ie cold night - sunny morning. Tyres can gain 1 psi easily in theses conditiions. Don't park bike in the sun before checking - black tyres absorb a lot of heat energy if left in the sun.
