oops, i definately meant 270 lbs. i havent seen 170 since i was perhaps 13/14 years old. Trust me, if i was sub 200, i wouldnt have posted.

Thanks everyone else for your information. Now that the max ratio of 0.89 can be applied in cold weather extremes, it poses another question.

What is the true max PSI a 25 Gatorskin can take. Sidewall says 120, but someone mentioned that they know above that is done regularly.

Thanks.
