Finding the right pressure:
tips and guidance
Calculating the correct pressure is essential to ensure optimal performance and safety. Below, we provide some useful tips to help you find the right setup.
- The maximum pressure of the tyre and the rim are normally different. Both are indicated on the side. It is mandatory to respect the lower of the two maximum pressure limitation.
- The Pressure Tool provides a recommendation for air pressure based on the values entered and general physycs principles. However, fine-tuning to the optimal air pressure is always subject to subjective impressions and can be adjusted within a slightly higher or slightly lower value, with this general benefits:
LOWER PRESSURE
Comfort
Speed (on rough surfaces)
Grip
Protection against punctures
Mileage
Aerodynamic
HIGHER PRESSURE
Protection against pinch flats (also called snake bites)
Speed (on smooth surfaces)
Reactivity
*Disclaimer – This tyre pressure guide is an initial rough recommendation: further fine-tuning is advised to find the correct pressure for each configuration.
