Many of the contributors to this forum appear to be located in parts of the Country that are close(r) to Sea-Level. Many of you using M/Ts seem to advocate running 41 front and 41 rear.
Just as a heads-up, as you climb in elevation the atmospheric pressure is reduced by a rough rule-of-thumb of 0.5 PSI for every 1,000 foot change. This depends on ambient temperature and, to a lesser degree, barometric conditions.
I regularly ride in the 3,000 - 5,000 foot range of elevation above Sea-Level so if I were to follow the 41/41 recommendation (and I do, thanks) of someone in...say...Florida, I need to REDUCE my tyre pressure.
More like to the 39.5 to 38.5 range respectively.
Just say'n
