I forgot what tire preasuer to run

I was rolling like 300ft endos last year. Had a bad accident at the end of the season which trashed the bike. About the time that I was getting ready to start putting thie bike back together broke my wrist had to have surgery and screws put in. So any way I have the bike about together and the shop that does my work is a race shop so the go crazy with tire preasure. So im wondering what front tire preasure for some long endos and back tire preasure for some 12s but mostly higher speed stuff. Any help is appreciated and hopefully i wont take me long to get my grove back

18-24... It's been a LONG while since I even attempted any long ones but I think that's where I was at last. Not exactly sure, but somewhere in that range.

Re: I forgot what tire preasuer to run

i try to run as much pressure as possible, it's harder to keep it stable and gives the tires less intial bit but i find i can consistently get about an extra 30-40 feet running more pressure. Used to run 18-20 cold, now i run anywhere between 30-35 cold depending on the temp.

Initial bite is the key to long distances though, especially in limited approach, a good quick snap into the balance point.. or past it.

300ft endos and you don;t know your what tire pressure you had??

What kind of approach are you using on those 300's? BC I'm trying to rock 300ft off a the 300 ft approach consistant.
