Bontrager Race Light: About 120PSI tongue out
Kenda Small Blocks: Usually about 50PSI but then they have mostly been used for paved riding and the occasional trail riding although I think they were probably a bit too high when I went to Afan! It's a trade off between a decent amount of grip and the likelihood of getting a puncture because I'm running tubes!
