Title: Tyre pressure question. Park & trails.
Post by: Hellcat on April 09, 2012, 09:23 AM

Right, what tyre pressure would y'all suggest for park & trails?

I saw a Tom Dugan how to air vid where he suggests 90psi. Is that right? ;)

120 for me riding vert, bear in mind though I am a fat knacker, whereas Alex is a whippet.....

I drop the front to about 90-95 for skateparks just to give my wrists a little respite.
