Chefisaac,

I have the same one in 700cx40. I read the link someone provided and see that the table offers "suggested" and "maximum" tire pressures. Is suggested the minimum?

The way I interpret the english language I would think that Nokian suggests running at 58 psi for most users of the W240, but that you can safely run pressure up to 65 psi for heavier bicyclists. But the question of "how low can you go" is perhaps intentionally left unanswered.

I'm thinking that it might not be a bad idea to run higher pressure in the rear tire since that is the one bearing most weight. And based on my ride to work today it seems like my front tire needed the most help. Kept trying to follow wheel ruts and/or slip off them.
