210 lbs plus gear weight. First time I tried the tires on pavement at 40 psi, the bike was sluggish and felt awful. It feels great on the pavement at 70. On dirt 40 feels about right and lower pressure helps soak up the bumps. 70 psi off road makes for an extremely harsh ride and the bike handles a little skittish on loose surfaces.
