6.2 Tyre pressure
The maximum tyre pressure depends on tyre width and inner rim width. You can use the tyre and rim manufacturers’
specifications when adjusting the tyre pressure. Do not exceed the maximum tyre pressure!
On many bikes, it makes sense to choose a tyre pressure that is lower than the maximum pressure for a more
comfortable ride. The minimum tyre pressure is also marked on the tyre sidewall and you should not fall below this value
either.
