Tubeless Tyre Pressure

Hi all,

I've been riding my first road bike for 2 weeks now and was wondering what people would recommend for tyre pressures.
I'm running 25mm Giant Gavia Race 1 Tubeless Tyres, I weigh around 72kg and have been running 100psi. It seems to be fine but a bit more dampening of the rougher roads would be nice.

Does having tubeless change anything? Simon Richardson was saying that he runs 80 front 85 rear on his 25mm tyres, would this be a good option? Should I just play around with different pressures?

Any advice appreciated!

    I weigh 72 kilo and run 25s and 28s between 85 and 90 psi, front and rear summer and winter
    By all means try different pressures until you find out what’s best for yourself

    you should be able to safely run lower pressure than equivalent tubes setup given less risk of pinch flat and a more supple feel to the tyre.
  • There is absolutely no need to be running so high pressures with 25mm and tubeless.

    With your weight I'd suggest 70F80R MAX
    I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles
