A quick question for someone who is bound to have experience with the Dunlop Alpha. I'm heading off to a first run on the KR1S at a Post Classic event tomorrow. Can i have an opinion on a good tyre pressure to start with. I dont have tyre warmers, and it is expected to be about 16 to 18 degrees C tomorrow (Australia - Wakefield). Appreciate any comments.

THe 32psi F & R turned out to be crap. On cold track it finished up with 26/27.
Anybody have smilar experience?

You either have a leak or a dodgy tyre pressure gauge. If the tires had over 30psi cold before you went out they shouldn't drop in pressure????

I read it as he didn't like the feel of 32 psi and dropped it to 26/27 to get the feel he wanted.

Dont ask me ........ Mines still a project
But the answer will be interesting to me for when i do take it to the track.
26 to 28ish does sound about right for track work though
