what pound pressures are you guys using, one up and two up?

 

looks kinda like mine....went to local bicycle shop, $20....have it today, no shipping

 

My new 08 UC came with about 5 psi in the rear. I fired up the compressor and dialed down the pressure to 30 and put 20-25 psi in my rear for my mostly solo riding. I noticed on my first ride with Mrs O'Lady that we were bottoming out. My gauge lets a couple psi out when I measure which is why I don't know the exact psi.

 

price is right on original post, I open my saddle bag to get to valve leave bag on bike unless washing

 

&nbsp\\;I wish I had seen that a week ago, I bought one from the stealer,$43+tax,,&nbsp\\; the relief button dosent seem to work either&nbsp\\; is there any trick to it?&nbsp\\; I may just have to return it

 

HD pump I have works fine, just open bag... don't have to remove.&nbsp\\; Stows in saddlebag.&nbsp\\; 4 years, no problems!

 

I set the pressure&nbsp\\;this spring &amp\\;&nbsp\\;checked it once or twice since but no need for adjustment.&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
Is it necessary - for most - to&nbsp\\;add air&nbsp\\;frequently?

 

BTW how do you get rid of all the slash marks that show up?

 

With hard bags no.&nbsp\\; Leather bags yes because they open towards the valve.

 

I never understood why anything more than a&nbsp\\;bicycle pump is needed.&nbsp\\; I can't imagine using the pump more than twice a year.&nbsp\\; Am I missing something?
