These tyres I mentioned are commuter tyres, and I'm not the only one using 126-130psi on my Halo Courier Berlins; others do also*****. They feel and perform best at that pressure. Similarly, even though Continental specify 110-120psi for their Super Sport Plus tyres, I find them best at about 126psi. They do actually puncture amazingly easily at 90-100psi (pinch flats), so Continental obviously had tested the tyres quite thoroughy. Its quite odd to have such a narrow band of best performance on a tyre (10psi), and through extensive use, I've found what works better (for the heavier rider).
