Title: Max Tyre pressure for Tuffs?
Post by: aerostylie on November 23, 2008, 12:01 PM

Hi folks ;)

Got a tasty set of Haro Multisurface 3 that I'd like to have caressing my tuffs. The max PSI is 100 but I've heard that tyres will only go so far before popping on tuffs?

So, before I re-create the big bang theory in B'ham, what's the max I can go on placcy tuffs?

Cheers

Paul

Thanks Bru, that sounds safe enough :daumenhoch:

Bet someone will up the ante on 60psi ::)

depends on the tyre.

ive blown a tyre off the rim jumping off a 2ft wall, but that was with cheap tyres, at 45 psi.

i have run primo walls, at 60 psi on tuffs with no problem, but then again, im not exactly dropping in from 100ft quarterpipes.

i did once run mine at 968psi but i found it a little hard, and the tyres rubbed on the frame and forks
