I should read more of the sheldon site
was interested to note that higher quality tyres benefit least from being overinflated.
Had also forgotten that front tyre should be 10% lower than rear, was generally runnin them at 5psi lower
it's good to learn new stuff, will also lower the pressure on road bike over winter as the surfaces get worse
can't imagine having a rear tyre lower than 100 psi but I am a lump and have 23 tyres
may look into trying something larger next time
