Rim Type What I managed to find out is that the casing is single ply - there is no such option in the calculator. And I most definitely have tubes inside the tyres. Is it tubes or tubular crochet? I have no clue what that even means. Could anyone give me a hand with that? : )
Another question is, since my rims and tyres are tubeless ready would you recommend switching to that? What advantages/disadvantages would it bring? Thanks : )
It sounds like you have tubes, pretty sure tubular crochet refers to tubular/sew-up tires that are glued to the rim.
There are so many variables at play in determining your ideal tire pressure such that it is hard to really just answer your question. My recommendation would be to use the guide you have and maybe also compare to other guides like Enve, Mavic & Silca and see what they all tell you. Perhaps take the average and start from there. You may find that pressure to be great or maybe not. Go for a ride and play around; obviously it is easier to let air out so maybe start with pressure on the high side and after riding a bit so you are in touch with the feel of the bike, stop and let some air out and see what you think. Also, the surface conditions, even on the same route, will change with weather etc and you will want to adjust for that. Learning what your bike can feel like will be really helpful; you'll see that there are pros and cons to higher and lower pressures. Have fun, experiment and you'll be wiser for it..
