Short answer.. It needs experimenting with...
Useing too high a pressure will make the tyre profile wrong, you'll have less conctact on the road than you should, and can perminently deform the tyre, too low a pressure will have a similar effect, and make them overheat.. i may be wrong but i'd be sticking reasonably closely to the reccomended..
Try playing with the pressures +/- 5psi, see what effects it has...
If you check the tyre walls it will list the maximum pressure under max load..
Whats your tyre brand? metzler have a part on their site where you put in your tyres and your bike then it gives you have the pressure should be...? worth a go
When it comes down to it.. if manufacturers could improve the handleing of their bikes just by saying you should use "x"pressure then they would! ____________________ >RidingSkills<->Tech Tips<->MyBikes< |
