*These are our rim manufacturer's recommendation.

Tire pressures (max.)*

*We compared a bunch of tires from different manufacturers. The recommended pressures above are an average trend manufactures are suggesting. Especially, if you run a tubeless setup sticking to the proposed numbers will make sure your tire won't blow off the rim in a tricky riding situation. However, less is usually more – more speed, more traction, and more comfort. Please check what your tire sidewall says to make a final decision.

*Our recommendation based on spoke count and our rim manufacturer's recommendations with a good safety margin. System weight means you in your kit (e.g. 170 lbs), your bicycle (e.g. 18 lbs), and your gear (e.g. bags, bottles, GPS, etc).
