Title: Tuff Pressure
Post by: James Nada on October 21, 2009, 09:50 PM

(in your experience), what's the maximum psi you should run with a Skyway Tuff? 

The later plastic hubbed ones advise 40 psi but this seems a bit on the safe side to me.  Riding style would obviously be a factor.

50 is ok for the normall tuffs, I used to run 60 psi in my Graphites with new school tyres  :daumenhoch:
