View Full Version : What a difference 5 lbs makes.
Got gas today and decided to check the tire pressure.
It was 13psi in the front, so I increased it to 18.
Made a huge difference in cornering,
no more mushing feeling or dipping .

It's always a good safety measure to always
check your tires and tire pressure before you
go for a ride.

get yourself some FOBO's and you won't have that problem. if you do, then the FOBO lets you know via your mobile device

For the record: I've got one of Lamonster's air packs, and the thing does a spectacularly easy job of adding air to any tire... even the rear tire! nojoke

I must be one of the only dinosaurs still around.
I don't have a cell phone let alone a smart phone.:yikes:
Yes I do check air pressure with analog dial gauge before I ride. :2thumbs:

:D But he was talking about adding five pounds; not removing it. :roflblack:
Speaking from experience: adding five pounds is NOT advantageous!
