Drop the pressures to 26psi cold and then forget about them. Once up to temp / pressure they stay stable and never exceed 32psi in 20 minute sessions.

Don't forget to pump them back up afterwards (I nearly always forget until a few days later) LOL.

As a slight aside from this, can anyone recommend pressures for the Evo Triangle trip this weekend? MPSS fronts, can't remember rears - think they're pilots from memory.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks as always Shimmy.

Yep, staying at home prob a good idea . . . but its the last blast before she's stashed 'til the Spring :( To be honest, with my limited skills, Triangle circuit times wouldn't be much different anyway!

Standard road pressures are fine for the CAT day - only short bursts in the car :thumbs:

With Andy Walsh you are advised to pump up to 50psi.:thumbs:

Always got a bit nervous above 45psi
