October 3, 201213 yr What pressure should i use in a X - Light rear, do i need slightly more in say 5psi or is 4-4.5 ok, not used an X-light before and mostly ride rocks/beck sections.
October 3, 201213 yr the x light is a softer compound and has thin sidewalls. so its more likely to have a punture.if you're riding fast long trails pump it up to 7-9 psi. 5 psi would be perfect you could even take it down to 3 in the mud hope this helps, ben
October 3, 201213 yr I run my rear X light at 5 PSI, If you run it to soft you end up with it getting cuts in the sidewall, Mine has three in one side!
October 5, 201213 yr me too I run at 4.5 to 5 and am not hard on tyres. Dont get many more punctures on x lites maybe a couple but not significantly more.
October 5, 201213 yr I ride on rocky/concrete stuff a lot. Any tyre gets cut up side walls. Just be gentle on the hard stuff.
