Hi following on from my other posts about getting a sever number of punctures I know have my slime inner tubes, but I don't know what pressure to put them up to as it doesn't say on my tyres. They are Scwalbe 'Nobbly Nic' does anyone have an idea?

PS for Front and Rear if that makes a difference?

    it totally depends on you, the tyre size and the bike and the conditions.

    have a look in the FAQs.

    depending on what type of punctures you are getting you may need more air.

    Schwalbe recommend 29psi for a 75kg rider as a start point with a 2.25 Nobby Nic.

    If it's the new 2011 TR Nobby it's 28psi.

    You then have to adjust for your weight and riding conditions.
