What tire pressure
Just got new carbon rims and tires. the tires are Vittoria Corsa EVO CX tubulars. What tire pressure do you put in your tires?

naturally you're supposed to put in the highest rating the tire has, which is 200psi.
If your pump doesn't go that high, then you have to figure out a way to 200psi, otherwise they're not roadworthy and you have to sacrifice them to the cycling gods.

I have been running those same tires on Ksyrium ES rims at 140 psi , i ride these on a very smooooth road . On a normal street i would drop the pressure to 110-120 psi or put on a clincher wheelset .
