Hi. I just ordered a pair of these in 700x34, folding. PSI is rated at 35-85.

And I run a steel fork. Wondering if anyone has advice on tire pressure. Will use them on hard to loose pack, hilly, not much rock gardens but rougher than fire roads.

Course I will experiment myself, but if anyone has any experience, good and bad, I'd really appreciate some input. They're rep is good on wet but are the squirrely on dry?

Thanks very much.

They are good tires. During cross season I was running a set at 40-45 psi depending on the conditions. How much you weigh will also determine this to a degree. I was about 175 at that time, so if lighter, I'd go a few psi lower.

Offroad: as low as you can go without pinch flatting.
Pavement: as hard as you can stand.

Real world conditions: find a happy medium.
