Anyone know what tire pressure I should run for the power race med? Hot and cold pressures please. I thought I heard monte say 24R and 29F. Thanks in advance SMiley
I am definitely not the guy to ask about tire pressure, but I was running 30 front and 30 rear on my BT-014's on Sunday. If anyone has some more helpful tire pressure info I could use it too.
In a search on another forum I found the norm to be 24 rear and from 29 to 32 front. the BT I can't help do a search on the wera board.
Sorry I missed this thread... I raced on the Power Race mediums... run 29-30 front and 23-24 rear. Depending on the temp, the track, your bike, etc. And yes, the rear on the Power Race's runs considerably lower than most every other tire out there.
Well I was going to star at 24r 30f. what about hot pressure? what does your range equate to hot??? Thanks for the response. Smiley
Not entirely sure. I've heard a lot of times that hot pressure should be roughly 10% more than cold pressure (30 would go up to 33-34'ish), but I haven't measured hot yet so I can't say. I'll try to remember to measure this weekend (I should have measured weeks ago) and let you know Monday if no one else chimes in with an answer.
WOW that's low!! See that's why I don't give advice yet....It's nice sucking off knowledge from you more experienced riders though.
Speaking of which.....Should I be running a little lower pressure than 30 in the rear on my BT-014s. It's the only tires I have for now and I might as well run them right. :?:
30/29psi front & 24/23psi rear are good cold pressures. Hot pressures should be 2-4psi higher in front & 6-8psi higher in rear. That's after several laps on a warm dry track.
