Modern Rubber-Tire Pressure

<< < (3/3)

K2-K6:
Firstly you'd need genuine information included on the sidewall to give a calculation.

I used the stated information provided in above post, but also asked if it was correct  :)

At 800lb, I'd be surprised to see a bike tyre with that capability, it would probably support the bike without inflation at that figure.

Generally, they agree within reason of manufacturer bike data as that's realistically the calculations they would make in specifying a tyre during design.

If someone has accurate sidewall data, it could be looked at to provide insight. Effectively it will show the minimum pressure, in that  tyre, needed to carry the load without compromise to its own structure, and hence avoid failure through use.
