That's a bit odd considering https://www.schwalbetires.com/tech_i...ation_pressure gives some generic guidelines & notes the pressure range stamped on tires. Perhaps Schwalbe avoids individual recommendations for legal reasons. For my 135 lb weight & 50mm tires the chart says to use ~40 psi, a bit lower than I would have guessed.
