Tyre Pressure

Postby Greenblood » Sun Aug 16, 2015 12:39 pm

Took the 10 out for a run today, got home and had a look at the tyres. :shock:
Is this what I can expect on a 10 or am I doing something wrong with the pressures I am running 35F and 37R same as the 7.
The front looked like it had been at the track too ( bit hard to see in the pic)
I wonder what they will look like in summer.

The stock tyres on them are soft as farrrrk.
Don't stress. Pressure is fine.

Given the cold weather I'd drop a couple of psi from the rear.. the front looks ok.

Not cold tearing, but not quite feathering so its pretty good..

Probly be fine as it gets a little warmer and the riding gets more spirited..
