Never exceed the maximum or minimum pressure from your tire or rim manufacturer. These figures are a starting point, fine-tune to feel.
Softer, Within Reason
A tire that yields to the ground carries more of its carcass in contact with the dirt. That extra footprint buys grip and composure, letting the rubber wrap over roots and stone instead of skating across the top of them.
Think of each tire as a first line of suspension. Dropping a little air smooths the chatter and quiets the buzz through the bars, and that matters even when there's a shock doing the heavy lifting behind it. Over loose or broken ground, the same give can cost you less energy, soaking up the little hits rather than pitching them back into the chassis.
Treat these numbers as a starting line, not a verdict. The margin between dialed and squishy is thin, so move a psi at a time and let the trail tell you when to stop.
