  • Lightweight. I only use 90psi in my Diamantes for general road siding, and I'm 25kg heavier than you. Try 80psi and see how it feels.

    Rated pressure on the side is the a: lowest pressue at which the tyre will work properly (i.e. not over heat) at maximum load and maximum speed and b: the highest pressure which won't blow off the rim in the worst case of tyre and rim size tolerance plus safety factor.

    You're heavier than me, fatty.

    I run 100psi give or take 10psi depending on conditions, ride/race, tyre choice.

    More grip, corner faster, beat rivals, take women, conquer earth.

    I'm sold.

    Next ride's Tuesday evening. Earth conquered by Wednesday, or a pinch flat.

    I've done 150ish miles with the Rubino pros at 80psi. The only noticeable differences are good ones. :)
