I noticed that the max. tire pressure stated on the HED website for Jet 6+ wheels is 90 psi. Does anyone have experience rolling those at a higher pressure?
My current weight is 200 lbs and I usually get down to 190 or so in summer so I usually roll at 115 psi.
I have Conti GP 4000S II's and Conti GP TT's both 25mm as my training and racing tires.
FYI, I think HED has a YouTube video stating the fastest tire on this wheel is a 22 or 23mm. I just bought a Jet 4+ / Jet Disc Plus set and use with 23mm Conti TTs for race only. Got the set just one day before Eagleman last weekend and in the rush to get the bike ready neither my LBS or I noticed the 90lb max pressure recommendation. I ran at 108 lbs (I weigh 155-160) for the race. Bike (P5) felt great and bested my former time by over 2 minutes. I'll experiment with lower pressures before next event (Philadelphia OLY)....too much info out there stating lower is faster.
