Re: Freestyle Tire Pressures????
20 psi cold. then when it warms up it somehow goes to 23. thats what works for me. i cant ride with 30psi, that **** sucks. i started at 10 psi. then worked my way up when i started learnin new ****. diff strokes for diff folks. its not gonna matter what everybody else is running. just carry a gauge in your pocket and figure out what works best for you.

higher pressure in the back WILL work better... it's just a matter of gettin used to it.
I used to be at 12lbs... then bumped up to 15, 18, 20 ect.
I'm stuck at 25 right now, but my goal is to be at about 28-30 (cold) in both front and rear during warm weather riding.
Going up in the back feels real funny at first... feels like it sucks... feels real unstable... but if you give it a chance for a couple sessions you'll see it opens up new doors to tricks that arn't possible w/ low pressure... and makes circles pretty much do themselves.
