I plan on hitting the Torrey Brown trail this weekend. The surface is crushed limestone. What would be the ideal psi for this terrain? I ride a 26x2.35 MTB (stans no tube setup) and was thinking of putting 35psi on both tires. Is this too low? The manufacturers recommended is between 30-60.

Thank you.

Is this the trail you are referencing?

It looks like a nice rails to trails conversion. Should be fun. 35 to 40 pounds should give you traction and keep you rolling really well. The 2.35's should give you a ton of traction for the gravelly type road surface. If you bike has good suspension you could put in more pressure. Personally I like my tires grabbing hold and keep the pressure a tad lower.

that's the one!!! I'm hoping I can ride the entire trail (80 miles r/t) without cramping. I'll probably start with 40psi & I'd lower the pressure if necessary. Thanks Dasp

Post some pictures if you get a chance. I live in the desert SW where out terrain is pretty bleak. I enjoy seeing the different parts of the country.

80 miles is a grind, but doable, good luck.
