For every 10 degree drop in fahrenheit temperature your tire pressure drops by 2 percent such that a drop from 80 to 50 degrees translates to a drop of 100 to 94 psi. There was a time when most riders would opt for 23c tyres on the road pump the tyre pressure up to around 110psi for every ride letting out just a little air to provide extra grip in poor weather. Bontrager tire pressures mountain continued. Bontrager has spent over a decade developing our comprehensive lineup of road mountain and hybrid bike tires.

For example on my touring bike when not loaded and just my body weight and bike weigh calculated using 32 wide tires i use 45 psi front and 70 rear but if i add 55 pounds of gear for touring i now have to raise that psi to 60 f and 90 r. Road tires typically require 80 to 130 psi pounds.

Proper tire pressure lets your bike roll quickly ride smoothly and avoid flats narrow tires need more air pressure than wide ones. In drizzly or rainy weather also lower the pressure by 10 psi for improved traction. Every bontrager tire has a recommended pressure range right on the sidewall of the tire.

All tires have either schrader or presta valves and most bontrager pumps are compatible with both.
