I have a rather odd tale to tell.
I have a new Bad Boy 2 hybrid with Kojak 28cc tyres fitted and a road bike with Durroguard 23cc tyres fitted and a standard foot pump and due to my bantum weight I'm happy with 6.5 bar at rear and 6 bar on the front.. so all OK at the moment.
So now I've changed the Kojaks on the hybrid for Gatorskins 25cc tyres and new tubes (23cc/25cc.)
The funny thing now is I can only pump up the Gatorskins to 3 bar and the tyre is at maxed out but the tyre is rock hard.
I let the front tyre down on my road bike and pumped it up to 6 bar then let the Gatorskin down but maxed out at 3 bar again..
So its the same pump but I cant get past 3 bar but its still rock hard on 3 bar.
PS.. On the Gatorskin box it said pump tyres a too minimum 6.5 and max at 8 bar.. but I cant?
Anyway I road the Bad Boy and all seems well.. well amazing really.
