I'm interested to see what pressure people pump their tyres to... I've tried going 120 on my roadbike, but with the crappy roads around here it's not a comfy ride when you do. On smooth tarmac it's amazing. I go for about 100 usually, still hard but with a little give.

Any options for those of us with multi-capable bikes? Like those ones that don't cry when you show them a kerb, some gravel, or a small jump? tongue out
Multi-capable suggests that that kind of bike won't cray when they get to smooth tarmac and those of us on non-multi-capable bikes vanish over the horizon :P

To be fair, I have no idea what kind of pressures you might run an MTB at so couldn't generate sensible options laugh

I tried 120 on the back and 100 on the front today - seemed to be best of both worlds smile
