    just bought myself a maxxis medusa exception 1.8 tyre to run at the back of my hardtail. will be using it for light xc eg thetford which is a bit of a slop fest at moment. could you recommend a good psi setting to start of with, i weigh about 94kg with gear on, so im no skinny whippet.

    I have a Medussa 1.8 – I’m 76kg and run it at about 30 – 35psi for my local trails where there is nothing really that will cause pinch flats.

    As there’s not a lot of volume in it you need the pressure to be a bit higher, I tend to go for feel though rather than rely on the pressure gauge – I like to have a reasonable amount of give in it.

    I’d suggest trying 35 to 40psi and see how it feels.
