Finn Bjerke Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Im 85 kg with gear what is best PSI for v13 after I slimed it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punxatawneyjoe Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I'm around the same weight and i use 30psi, i like it on the softer side. I don't know if i would slime the tire though on the off chance you get a puncture through both tire and tube but i don't know where you are riding it. Could be through a roofing nail factory waste dump. I just think it's heavy enough without slime in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novazeus Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) i'm running my michelin street pilot 2 with max sidewall pressure of 45 psi at 40 psi. this is a tubeless tire but running it with a tube. pretty darn stiff but i like hard. keeps things interesting! no slime needed.

mrelwood Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) 30psi is what I usually use on 80/90-14 and 2.75-14 motorcycle tires. Larger tires should do fine with even a little less, since smaller tires require more. But this depends a lot on how and where you ride. Someone just shared photos of their V11 rim after running into a deep pothole at 30km/h on a motorcycle tire pumped to 2.5 bars (37.5psi). It was disastrous, the rim was completely wasted. I’ve been fine off-roading and gravel riding at 30psi for 7000+ km. Edited April 9, 2023 by mrelwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucka Wheelie Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I'm 75kg (probably 77kg with gear), I started off with 40psi but dropped it to 38psi which feels better for my riding preference. I also have my suspension at 170psi, which is slightly higher than suggested for my weight. Combo of those two has felt the best so far.
