About 10psi if you're doing this sort of thing........



Otherwise 24 psi all round is good.
But when I go camping, I put 26 in the rears to cope with the extra weight ( mainly beer ).

How do you get the beer into the tyres at that pressure. Or is that 26 pints? Assume you are using Old Speckled Hen or does anyone know a better brew for this application?

It's a long & complicated process Tony.
The first stage is actually getting the Old Speckled Hen into the pressurised dispensing vessel:

Under European legislation, it has to be carried out in a humane manner, but the method remains a closely guarded secret.
Old Speckled Hen remains a firm camping favourite, although some would say Peacock would be better in a can.

Essington Ale is a favoured UK camping alternative ( try at least 2 bars ).
For continental forays the best choice would be Lancaster Bomber or Spitfire.

HTH,
Glen.
