Has anyone applied the pressure recommendations given on Silca’s site: https://silca.cc/pages/sppc-form
From what it tells me, I can safely put in 30 to 33 PSI of pressure in my Schwalbe Marathon GT 365 tires (26"x2") on poor roads. This would be below the min 35 PSI listed on the tire, and about 20 PSI lower than what I’ve ever run them at.
I’m not too terribly worried about punctures, but do worry about pinch flats.
Thoughts?
I’ve confirmed the tire width with calipers, and I overestimated the weight (added an extra 60lbs of load) to be on the safe side, but the number still look really low.
Even if I fiddle around with numbers, for example, increasing the speed from recreational to fast group ride, it changes the values by a half PSI.
