Tyre pressure

[Bob lakin]

What tyre pressure are you running on the 900E on tubeles?

I'm 70kg without gear and my tires are aprox. 14.5 psi (1 bar).
Maybe could be a little bit less, but i'm still experimenting, coming from 2.3/2.4 tires...

After getting a couple of ‘ burp’ flats when going tubeless and not being able to reseat the bead out on the track . I’ve just fitted Cushcore inners. Wasn’t too difficult after watching their installation video. Will be interesting to see how they perform.

Are many people getting pinch flats with these tyres (with tubes)? I'm still running tubes (at about 20 psi) and have had no problems so far. Then again, I'm not doing big jumps for fear of breaking this ageing body

Have had loads of pinch flats on rear! 30psi and weigh 82kg so going tubeless... Thinking of rim protectors as well.

Zero flats tubeless after 1000km

I have a mullet bike. 29 x 2.5 on the front. Both assegai (current) and dhf (recent past) were at 16psi - seems good, both with tubes, no flats. The rear is 27.5x2.6 is weird. DHRII seems to need 21 with a tube, 23 tubeless. I tried the dhrII at 19 when it was first tubeless. It felt too flat - and I got a flat. The home made sealant took a while to work - admittedly it is 5 or 6mm cut low down on the wall. I feel it might be a pinch flat.
I have since found that 23psi for dhrII tubeless on rear - I was running 21 in the same tyre prior to going tubeless and it was good. I'll keep trying tubeless on the rear for a while, if not for good. Initially I missed the extra support of the inner tube - it didn't need as much air and wasn't so pliable as tubeless. Maybe I'm getting used to it.

I run 25psi.
tubeless and 2500 miles, no punctures - only flat I had is when the side wall tore.
