21mm internal rims
28mm Pirelli P-zero Race (measure 28mm on rim too)
TPU tupes
Bike 6.6kg + 1.5kg for water
Rider 76kg + 1-2kg clothes, shoes, snacks?

Not very accurate when pumping tires, aiming for around 5 to 5.2 bar (72 Psi). Rear usually slightly higher. So between 72 to 79 Psi.
Realise I could probably go lower, I see others with much lower pressure. But I dont want to.

Whatever the Silca tyre pressure calculator tells me although it's no good for mud. For muddy rides about 15-20psi.

65kg rider / 7kg bike
30mm Label GP5k hooked tubeless
31mm WAM (width as measured)

55~70psi depending on course.

I daily 58-ish psi FR. To give context, people with bad cages eject bottles at +30mph on these roads I show up with sub 60psi. But I also have roads with extremely smooth, freshly paved tarmac so these I can pump high.
