Bikes: 1977 Bridgestone Kabuki Super Speed; 1979 Raleigh Professional; 1983 Raleigh Rapide mixte; 1974 Peugeot UO-8; 1993 Univega Activa Trail; 1972 Raleigh Sports; 1967 Phillips; 1981 Schwinn World Tourist; 1976 Schwinn LeTour mixte; 1964 Western Flyer

With 40c tires (about the same), I find that my best pressure is at about 70-75 psi front and rear, but that's with my 200 lbs on a 30 lb bike.

45 lbs would be good for singletrack or off roading.
