Just fitted a minion dhf and dhr2 to my bike. They are set up tubeless and are 27.5*2.3 with the exo casing. I set them to 20 psi front and 23 psi rear as that was how I was running Hans dampf. Felt fine but just wondering what other people are running these at.

Thanks that was well worth the effort of posting the link. It's a genuine question as I'm new to tubeless and new to these tyres.

With pressures that low they would last 5 mins with the slatey /rock that we have. They would nip and burp like hell......

Liked that vid BTW 😛

Nice, I take it you didn't watch the whole edit OP.

Weight (stones) x2 = PSI (ish)

Minimum 30psi round here. I know of some that have ran less but they burp like hell, even in the front.

About the same here, but then I'm 12.5 stone plus gear.

Didn't watch the whole video. Thought it was a p take. Seems like I might be a bit low on pressures then but not far off. I'm 11.5 stone so 23ish will be a good starting point.

I'm 11 stone and run between 24-25psi front and 28-29psi rear. Depending on how rocky it is.

Do you ride naked?

Weigh yourself with your normal riding gear on and see what you get.
