No, 120psi isn't a better ride. All you are doing is removing the shock absorbing and cornering characteristics from your tyres. Harsh, less grip = fail.
I'm 93kg and run 100-110 on the race bike, less on the commuter. The TT bike is the only one that gets more and that's because the tyres are rated for it and it still handles ok.
Silca?
Rennkompressor?
