Hello guys, hope youre having awesome days with your wheels!❤️

I recieved my new lovely 18XL last week and I completely forgot to check the tire pressure...(ridden around 60km so far and I love it!)

My BW is 80Kg, I am 180cm...

How many PSI / BAR should I use?

Thank you very much guys, have a great day!

2.4-2.5 bar with factory tire works best for me. I'm exactly at your weight.

Try 2.2-2.5 bars. Off-roading is better with lower. Experiment up to 2.8 and see what you like. Focus on bouncing as that is a safety and comfort issue.

This is very individual, some like a hard tyre, some like it soft.
I ride with a high 30s PSI pressure myself, but that is to my liking (I'm a heavy rider).

Suggest you try out for yourself and see what you like.

Edit: There is already a thread in the KS-forum regarding this :)
