175 lbs including bike and gear rolling on 28s. Used the PSI calculator floating around Reddit and it wants me in the low 70s. Usually roll in the high 90s close to 100.

First ride feels soo slow!! Is that really because I’m more stable? All a trick of the mind?? I’ve heard higher pressure only “feels” faster because ur so unstable and bumpy. It’s quite a trip.

Will this lower pressure also help me corner with more grip?
