what is the REAL recommended PSI for this bike since people say the tires blow out at 100 psi?

Damn I keep mine at 65-70 and Im 210 pounds on a 58cm frame with 700 x 25 stock wheels and tubeEDIT: Today after riding on 60psi for a few days, I increased the PSI to around 80psi. So far, no blowouts. The tires began to feel slow at 60psi once broken in. Now at 80psi, they feel OK.EDIT: 03/12/2014 Now I ride 90 PSI with no problems...

I have generally kept mine at around 95 psi without issue. That's with the stock tires and tubes.

I've been riding mine for about a month with the tires at about 90-95psi with no problems. I saw the comments about blow outs and kept it a little lower for safety's sake.

I'm not sure of min or max pressure, or even if my infltator pressure gauge is accurate, but I inflate to 35psi and it's about rock hard. I'm pretty sure most bike tires have enough variance to allow for the environment they will be traveling. It's not rocket science.

I would go with the higher limit if I needed it. The bike looks very sturdy to me.

I just checked my tires. There is not an 'o' in the listing. The size is 26x2.125. These tires require a higher psi inflation to overcome the added resistance that so much heavy tread on the pavement creates. As for durability, I have no doubt. But the tire when inflated in enough larger than the originals I've had to remove the fenders, both front and back. Whether it is the tire for your bike, or not, you'll have to decide.

50 - 65 I have 1000 miles on it its the back tire on my trike, hope that helps

in between mountain bike and regular tires. The bike is a pos though. I already returned it and went to a real bike store. Save yourself some aggravation, go to a real bike shop.

Error on the safe side. Take your tires to 110 and check with a different gauge and you will be happy.

says 160psi, I use it to fill up my bike tires to 110 psi, no problem. I had an old one that lasted about 6-7 years.

I bought the larger of the two sizes. Spec may CLAIM 120 psi, but in my experience it is VERY difficult to get the bike's tires up to 90 psi. On the other hand, it does put in enough pressure to be able to ride the bike back home, where I can top it up with a powered pump.

I have only needed 100 psi. Line pressure with two people on my bike has been as high as 160 but only used compressor to 100 psi. I'm sure it will go to 110 and thought it was rated at 150.

It took both my son and daughter to carry it in...awkward more than anything...but the bike is solid as a rock! I've ridden it since October and love it. I'm up around 245 and it take my weight easily. I do recommend keeping the air pressure at 60lbs or higher...it not only rides better, but the tires won't wear as fast. WTMI? Sorry :-)

This is not advisable since bicycle tires can require tire pressure well over 100psi. This pump's maximum operating pressure is 70psi.

,Dial goes to 280. Red zone starts at 200. I have a bike tire I air to 100 psi. Works great. Schumacher service is way over the top good. I would recommend you buy it. I have one and gifted one. On psi, I attempted to air bike tire at service station buttheir compressor only went to 70 psi.

I havent checked the max pressure on the unit, BUT it is heavy duty as I have inflated all 4 tires on my Jeep cherokee 4x4 with has I believe 17-18 inch tires, with 145 psi on each tire without one prob. Also it is a very fast inflator as it has twin cylniders-At 120 for your road bike? id honestly say u would have no worries. It's great-small -very portable-BTW customer service for Slime is the best ive seen should you have an issue........

I'm 220 and no problem, running recommended pressure on the side wall.They should have a higher capacity than skinnier tires as far as weight cap.

I think the tires are great. If you ride them under the standard air pressure 100psi. Any tire well ware fast..

While these tires are rated for over 100 lbs., I run 100 in both front and rear. Too much inflation is like riding a bouncy ball and invites more potential for flats. But, that's just an opinion, not a fact.
