My tyres say 100 psi minimum 145 max, what would you guys use? Max? Or would that be too harsh?
I have run mine at max as i'm a heavy rider. Not sure if that is right but the least rolling resistance the better.
Why not? Assuming i have good wheels and hubs, decent tyres etc...higher pressures do not necessarily equate to lower rolling resistance...

So a softer tyre with more rubber in contact would have less resistance and roll quicker than a harder tyre with less contact area? No wonder i flunked sciencebecause the harder a tyre is, the less deflection it will offer over an uneven surface. The tyre will 'bounce' over imperfections in the road, rather than absorb them.
