So not the "use the floor pump until it's an effort, then twang the tire and if the ring is high enough and you're slightly scared to go near it, the pressure's nearly sufficient" technique.
Thanks for the dumbed down version, everyone. I'll try the calculator, but a couple of things bother me... the calculator doesn't allow for rim width. How do/should you adjust for different rims? And how should you decide on rim and tyre width combos?
Are there any implicttions for puncture resistence?
