  • So not true! I'm 120 lbs and can not for the life of me get certain pumps to go up t 120 psi! I do 120 b/c I kn0w I'll l0se (stupid O key nt always wrking nw) abut 10 psi when i take 0ut the pump. plus, I've laid n the ne at my mom's and can't get it t g past 100 psi. I used ne at a stre and culd just barely get up t 110, had t have the guy d0 the back wheel, felt a right idi0t!

    If you're only 120 lb you don't need anywhere near 120 psi, even if you are loosing 10 psi (seems a bit much to loose 10 psi) by removing the pump which is hell of a lot you would be fine with 100 psi. I'm a simg over 11 stone and have never had any problems with 90 - 100 psi on 23 mm tyres over 1000's of miles and on 28 mm tyres my pressure is lower still.
