That being said, the roll is remarkably improved at 90-92 PSI.
No improvement over that pressure, and I can feel the resistance at 85 ------- 90-92 is magical for my 190#, and the bikes 42#.
I love these tires so much, that I have three more waiting in the basement, vacuum packed, just because size availability is sometimes a problem.
Just sayin!!!!!!
I worked out that to get the optimum 15% drop on the sidewall means 45/55 PSI Front/Rear.
At that, they are very slightly slower, but hard to tell. They ride super smooth at that, though.
