I'm curious what other folks are doing pressure-wise.

I'm fairly lightweight (70kg, possibly after lunch? With back pack and water, who knows? I usually carry extra tools, etc...), and run 2.6" 27.5/650b tires.

Rear is around 20psi, but it's tubeless so I generally catch it once it's slipped down to 15 or 17 after a few weeks :). I've just realized I'm not even sure what the tire is, but it's a maxxis brand, so probably actually 2.4" wide compared to most other companies - not much clearance on my Intense Recluse

My front is usually about 18psi, on a specialized 2.6" somethingorother (pretty sure it's not a butcher)

i do around 30psi. i use tubes as tubeless is just hopeless on the terrain i am riding (tires develop long-ish slices after a few rides that no sealant could ever fix) due to there being sharp rock shards. tires are Continental crossking 29" 2.2. i weigh like 60 or so kg and my bike is like 20-23 (emtb)

For all things mountain biking. If it's pedal powered (or even pedal assisted), goes on two wheels, and belongs in the dirt, it's welcome here.

What isn't welcome: Hate speech, bigotry, assholery, road bikes...
