Between The Tape Liked a forum topic High vs. Low Tire Pressures: Which Is Faster?
1/25/2025 11:05am
We all know the theory: lower tire pressures mean more grip, and higher pressures roll faster. But when it comes to real-world speed, which one really wins? I set out to answer this with 30 timed runs down the same track. ◾ The Experiment Two sets of tire pressures were chosen for my 88kg (194lbs) weight: 25/28 psi (front/rear) for the higher pressures and 18/20 psi (front/rear) for the lower pressures. These pressures maintain a consistent 0.9 front-to-rear ratio, with the high pressures aligning with recommendations such as those from E13 . After three warm-up laps, each tire pressure setup...

None of you tech-sleuths can enhance/superzoom the fitment details scribbled on that rear axle, and backwards translate it into what frame it's for? You all got high Freckle-gate standards to live up to.

Good watch. Charlie Murray bike check. Stumpjumper 15 with vivid lyrik and brake ace sensors. Vivid coil seems interesting on the bike. https://youtu.be/uXJtsLQuVSA?si=Z21NcDtbThz69r82

A bit of shameless promotion, but hopefully it's relevant. I just put out a podcast episode where me and Alan Milway chat through all the 2025 team moves (confirmed and rumoured). Hopefully it's an interesting watch/listen. https://youtu.be/Mu0JAhGceB8 or https://www.downtimepodcast.com/team-moves-2025/ Clearly this forum gets a mention! Thanks to everyone here who keeps the rumour fire burning, I personally love it!

I'm not sure if TN National is a regional feeder race for UCI, but I'm pretty sure Aaron can get a top result at any American regional race and get in that way. I'm not sure the timing...might miss the first round (s), though?

My first thought of the creation of the continental series aspect of all the changes is the opportunity it brings to the rest of the (err, "non-white") world and what that means for the health of the race scene and mountain biking in a general sense. Can't wait to see who has the chance to break thru to top with proper exposure and support !

Easy to come 3rd in the women's Elite when there are only 3 riders (correction 4) in the Elite female field. Bailey came 12th overall in the female field with 7 x U19 and 2 x U17 riders in front.

RoJo1 Liked a forum topic Front DH Tyres Accurately Timed: Kryptotal vs Assegai vs Magic Mary vs Vigilante vs Plus+

Hey all! I did a whole heap of tyre testing last year at Bike Park Wales. The aim was to accurately measure which were quickest, based on multiple timed laps. I had always intended to make this video in case anyone finds it interesting or helpful, but only just got round to making it. Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think, and whether any of this lines up with your experience. I was extremely surprised by the results... The tyres on test were: Continental Kryptotal 29x2.4 DH/Supersoft Maxxis Assegai 29x2.5 DH/MaxxGrip Schwalbe Magic Mary 29x2.4 DH/Ultra Soft...

1/17/2025 4:45am Yeah, I was hoping the two stars ( Loris back to Fox, Dialed back online) would align. Dialed on its own is awesome, best vlog on the WC but watching Jordi dealing with Loris pickiness is just chef kiss
