ideal psi tire pressure for hard rock sport?
I just bought a new specialized hard rock sport 06 model 2 days ago. What is the ideal tire pressure for this bike? Everything is stock, and I weigh 170 lbs.

There isn't an ideal tire pressure. It will depend on the rider, their riding style, the riding conditions, etc. You'll have to try varying pressures. I change mine regularly based on the trails I am riding, weather conditions, etc.

Also if you're going to be riding mainly pavement lose the knobbies and get yourself some of these: Specialized Nimbus there are three versions (my link leads to the mid priced version) You'll thank me later
