All this talk of 100kg riders @ 75psi on 25mm tyres and scoblestories of only pinching at 20psi doesn't really tally with my experience.
I do crash into a lot of shit but I need 70psi in 25s, and I'm 60kg. Less = pinches, even on my better local roads.
I need about 45psi in cross tyres (on trails) or I'm on borrowed time (or borrowed tubes).
