2023 Subscriptions George Posted October 7, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Is there any benefit in applying talcum powder to my chain tomorrow? Also, I'm on clinchers, what psi for Irvine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions XXX Posted October 7, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 As low as they can go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions PaulL Posted October 7, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 No for Talc and depends how muddy for psi... but rule of thumb is your weight in kgs divided by 10 add to base of 20... minus 5 for deep mud plus 5 for hardpack... plus 5 for clinchers... so tomorrow if its very muddy and you are running clinchers.. with weight of ?? lets say 78kgs= 20+7.8+5-5=27.8psi or as soft as you can 😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions George Posted October 7, 2017 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Cheers, Paul. No idea what to expect. Will try to get a few practice laps in. Has anyone entered Strathy Park? PaulL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions martin Posted October 7, 2017 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Irvine one of the least muddy cx courses. Free draining and usually firm (bar the sandy section). So I would go for higher pressure than other parcours. And I'm more than 80kg.
