Always Check Your Tyre Pressure


Tyre Pressure


Tyre pressures have a major effect on a bike’s handling.  Most bikes run around the 40psi mark and say a 5psi drop can reduce the handling of your bike somewhat.  Instead of making a choir out of it just check when you fill up.   Having your tyres inflated to the correct pressure will help you in an emergency situation.
Make sure your tyres are cold when you check pressure, so head to the service station closest to home to check pressure before embarking on a ride. And check that your tyres have legal tread depth when you check the pressure.

 

Good tyre pressure, good ride.
