[QUOTE="2smoke, post: 167351, member: 563"] Really depends on what your riding on from day to day. I have such a nice mix if different terrain on any given ride. Typically I start out on the asphalt. Then I make my way through some grass. Then into some soft sandy type dirt. Then to hard pack. Then rocks. Then deep soft loose sand. Then more rocks. Then hard pack with rocks. Then sand with hard pack under it. Occasionally when and if it rains the hard back gets wet and kinda soft and the traction is fantastic. The soft sand gets kinda firm and grippy also when its wet. But my typical ride sorta looks like this. [MEDIA=youtube]0Mq2ZqSrK-I[/MEDIA] and this [MEDIA=youtube]v1-hpdqW25U[/MEDIA] But to answer your question. I like to run about 12-15 PSI in the rear, and 15-18 in the front. Remember that when you start riding the friction of the tire running across the ground makes the tire heat up. Thusly heating up the air in the tube. Therefore increasing your tire pressure. Its typically not that much but my experience is as much as 5 PSI but typically 2-3. [/QUOTE]
