What PSI do you ride your bike at? i have been testing mine today(did loads of rides at different levels) i think i like around 50~ tried up to 65 and down to 35 but 50 is the best for my road/slightly off road riding style.

it is funny how much difference the psi make tbh, 55+ was harsh and uncomfy.

bike needs a wash now

i got a crap pump with mine but i always use the guage on it till its 50.
Wether or not its correct is somat else

Itll say on the side of your tyres.

Mines 65psi but thats cause they arent that wide on the tyre front.

Depends completely on tire width, contruction, rider weight, surface, etc.

My road bikes tires are pretty soft as far as they go, about 100psi, and it still has a "magic carpet" ride due to to the great frame.

City/shopping bike gets 80psi rear, 70 front, on WTB Slickasaurus tires. 35mm. Very plush as well.

when i was riding my MTB, id probably stick it at 40 - 50 psi for comfy road riding without too much drag.

its 32 front, 36 rear on the motorbike if thats any consalation

32f 36r is what I put in the vw.

Ive never ever bothered looking at cycle tyre pressures, I just keep them pumped up.

33 front 30 rear on my... calibra lol and thats the comfort setting restricted to a cool 120mph with the pressures like that.. need more air if intending to go faster

You can do it by feel on a mtb, but road bikes demand a proper gauge.
