Bike Tire Pressure Calculator 0.8.1

Safety should always come first when cycling. It is essential to ensure that your tires are inflated to the correct pressure range, usually indicated on the tire's sidewall.

Interestingly, higher tire pressure does not always result in higher speed. Several factors need to be taken into account:

• Tire size: Narrow tires require higher pressure compared to wider ones.
• Body and bike weight: Heavier riders should use higher pressures than lighter riders.
• Grip: If the tire pressure is too high, it may lead to reduced grip as there is less surface area touching the road.
• Comfort: The ideal pressure allows the tire to deform slightly when under load, providing better comfort.
• Tubeless setup.

Calculating and setting the correct tire pressure is crucial. This app assists in determining the recommended tire pressure for road bikes or mountain bikes efficiently.

Key Features:

• Separate pressure recommendations for front and rear tires
• Includes a comprehensive range of tire sizes from 23mm to 120mm in width and 26" to 29" in circumference
• Supports both metric and imperial weight units
• Provides pressure values in psi and bar
• Suitable for various types of bikes including road bikes, city bikes, cyclocross, gravel bikes, triathlon bikes, aero bikes, fat-tire bikes, e-bikes, and mountain bikes
• Newly added feature: option for tubeless setups

Optimal tire pressure varies based on individual preferences and riding conditions. This app caters to road cyclists, mountain bikers, bicycle commuters, and triathletes alike.

Whether you're aiming for a personal record on Strava or embarking on an adventurous Gran Fondo with Komoot, starting with the correct tire pressure is paramount.
