I usually run 70 front and rear on fly rubens. Ran 80 front and rear for a day and found it a bit too stiff.

Street - Never, EVER Higher Than 75PSI
I Usually Inflate Them To 75PSI & Let Them Go Down Naturally To Around 60PSI For Optimum Riding Pressure!

Flatland - Same As Mr. Mexican About 110/115PSI

|

3/31/2014 2:08 PM

100 to 110 both tires all the time

|

3/31/2014 2:30 PM

40/60 max I like my wrists too much.

|

3/31/2014 2:38 PM

Anywhere between 60 and 100, I'll usually pump em up when they get too soft for my liking then they slowly get softer over time

|

Honestly? Who gives a shit. Its the fucking internet. I hate all of you equally.

110 psi. I ride fast and need the best cornering possible being a park rat.

110 psi or die !~

"Of course theyre compatible theyre cranks"

3/31/2014 7:19 PM

80psi at the parks is a must for me.
I don't mind anything between 60 and 80 for street, but I generally always have 80psi.

I Like To Have A Little Give In My Tyres...

A. For My Wrists

B. For Shock Absorption

&

C. I Honestly Don't Think They Need To Be Anymore Than 70/75PSI To Roll Fast!

You Start Going 80+ & There's ZERO Give, More Blow Outs, More Wrist Pain & General Hurting Because You Land Hard You Get Beat Up By The Bike Because There's NO Give! 75PSI MAAAAXIMUM! grin

I ride Fit FAFs and I always keep them at 100psi for both street and park. Any lower just feels weird for me.

|

3/31/2014 7:38 PM

I pump them up to 90 and let them go down to 60, but I normally like them around 80 and thats strictly street, I have alot of hills around here and I like to roll as fast as possible

|

3/31/2014 8:09 PM

Around 65 for street because squishy tires feel better on large drops, hard landings and are more forgiving ect. And around 85-95 for park an trails because I don't like to feel like a snail when pumping around and blasting ramps, I like to be able to transfer from one thing to the next without the need to pedal or pump my ass off to hit a wall ride, blast a hip ect.

Nothing like a Good day of Digging and Riding

I have at least 70-85 at all times.

I only ride park on rare occasions but i run 40-50 psi at all times. I love the sluggish cushy feeling of lower psi.

This.

usually 40-45ish in my front, 50 in the back. I pump both my tires up to 50psi then let a small amount out of my front. Much easier on the wrists & I like the back having a tiny bit more air for harder landings since you typically land rear wheel first

3/31/2014 10:59 PM

I'm park rat need a lot of air haha I ride 95 front 100 rear

Fuck u

Street = 75
Park = 85

Freestyle is the answer to everything --
a fresh way to approach a dull or a
dangerous thing.
to do a dull thing with style
is preferable to doing a dangerous thing
without it.
