what is the REAL recommended PSI for this bike since people say the tires blow out at 100 psi?

Damn I keep mine at 65-70 and Im 210 pounds on a 58cm frame with 700 x 25 stock wheels and tubeEDIT: Today after riding on 60psi for a few days, I increased the PSI to around 80psi. So far, no blowouts. The tires began to feel slow at 60psi once broken in. Now at 80psi, they feel OK.EDIT: 03/12/2014 Now I ride 90 PSI with no problems...

I have generally kept mine at around 95 psi without issue. That's with the stock tires and tubes.

I've been riding mine for about a month with the tires at about 90-95psi with no problems. I saw the comments about blow outs and kept it a little lower for safety's sake.

I'm not sure of min or max pressure, or even if my infltator pressure gauge is accurate, but I inflate to 35psi and it's about rock hard. I'm pretty sure most bike tires have enough variance to allow for the environment they will be traveling. It's not rocket science.

My Topeak is for a road bike which uses a presta valve for high PSI (90-110 pounds) pressure. Most kids bikes, mountain bikes, and I imagine stroller tires use Shrader valves (auto tires too) which are for lower pressure. You probably need a Shrader style fitting. I am unaware of adapters that go Presta pump to shrader fitting, but you can check into that. Most adapters go the other way, for pumping a presta tube with a shrader pump.

When adding air pressure to the air springs, remember that they have a much smaller volume of air that a tire so they will inflatemuch quicker. Add air pressure in short bursts until the vehicle is level. (NEVER EXCEED 100psi IN EACH AIR SPRING.).that is from the manufacturer, I believe my gauge goes to 110psi, I'd never get to that pressure anyway, hope that helpsNote the manufacturer recommends to keep a minimum of 10 psi in the air bag at all time.

the recommended tire pressure is printed on the side of the tire. My 700 x 25 has a high pressure rating of 103 psi. The 700 x 23 is probably a little higher, but once again look at the tire!

It will inflate till 120psi no problem and there is a gauge that shows the pressure. Good for roadbike.However, it is big to carry around and I decided to return just to carry my CO2 gas gun for easy inflationsonly thing is that

I have 700c on my hybrid. I think its a compromise tire. I toured Idaho this year and was able to leave other road bikes at will. My only complaint is that i think the tires i got from the Amazon seller were old stock with dry rot after just one year.

Listed pressure range is 40 - 65 psi. I inflate to about 55 psi for off-road. For pavement 65 is probably about right.

Depends on the brand of tire but most run in the 90 to 120 psi range. Check the sidewall. The recommended psi will be there.

Think the tire reads 58psi. About right maximum for float in this semi balloon tire. Although the bead and sidewall seems pretty solid. May be able to run it up a bit higher, if needed, for heavy loaded touring or utility use. I have been running them around 55 psi on my wife's converted mtn commuter bike. Nice tires, nice ride. No flats so far.

The info page takes its data from the manual, which says 250 max PSI. Whether it's capable of doing that, I dunno, as I've only pumped up tires and sports equipment with it. Tires take a while to get to 55 (probably around 5 to 15 minutes from 0-10 PSI), so I can only imagine it would take near forever to get those shocks to 200. If the manual is to be believed, the CH would do what you need.

i inflate it to 40 PSI but dont know what is shown on the tire and they are worn out from the tire...sorry

Tire did not properly fit my rim and i flatted every ride. ended up throwing them in the trash. oh. I think like 90 psi or something

You need a 26 x 1.95 but a lot of tubes run 26 x 1.75-2.2 or something like that as long as the goes to 1.95 your fine, I got the slime tube at the same time I got the from amazon. The max psi is 65psi, that's what is stamped on the tire and the min is 40psi. I rode them on 40psi and they where fine and I filled them to 65psi and they where even better. If you get the slime tubes fill them a little bit until they are rounded before you put them on to help prevent pinching and then fill them with the valve opposite the ground and adjust the psi the same way to prevent the slime from blocking the valve and oozing out.

My thoughts are that some forks are built narrow and wide so the tire can be inflated to both widths. 1.75w or 2.125 w

I have only needed 100 psi. Line pressure with two people on my bike has been as high as 160 but only used compressor to 100 psi. I'm sure it will go to 110 and thought it was rated at 150.

For me, 25mm provides a better ride. I also inflate them to a lower psi than what is recommended. I run the rear tire at 90 psi and the front at 90psi. I think that set up provides me a better ride especially on roads that have been chip sealed. Mike
