hi,
off on my jollys to bonny scotland next week.
i have put a fresh pair of avon cobra,s on but lowerd the profile on the front,rides a lot better and faster.
the thing is the bike will be 2 up,panniers etc,i think at the mo i am running 42 rear 40 front psi,what do you guys think the correct pressure to use ??
thanks.
 
40 front sounds right. Rear if 2 up and loaded - consider a bit more - maybe 45 - especially if you'll be "tramping on" a bit.
 
As a general rule, I have found going 2-3 PSI over the maximum PSI posted on the tire increases the distance before the tire needs replacing.
