Tire Pressure 8 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
Hi, Mel. I've bought a new wheel set up and it's pressure recomendation for my weight ( 160 pounds ) is 19-22 PSI front and 22-25 PSI rear. The maximum tire pressure recomended is 33 PSI. It is said to be a large air rim that increases the air retention and is designed to be used with regular tires with latex sealant and with no tubes.
I use to ride 35 PSI front ( 2.1 tire ) and 40 PSI rear ( 1.9 tire ).
I've always heard that is good to ride with lower pressures.
My question is : These low pressures will increase the rolling resistence ?
Thanks, Luiz.
