Ok thank you! I need to get a presta valve pressure guage. Right now I’m going on just tire feel. I can pump up the tire but i only have a schreader valve pressure guage.
It rolls pretty good but I’ve only been on smooth asphalt so far.
I do notice some autosteer compared to my 27.5" Nimbus Oracle…I guess this is fat tire “characteristics”… I’ll learn to anticipate this.
Autosteer and a floppy/wobbly feel to the tire when turning or hopping are signs your tire pressure is too low. I like just enough pressure so that I don’t experience either one. Also, you can get a Presta to Schrader valve converter for about $1. They’re awfully nice to have if you use an aircompressor to fill tires.

Ok cool… I’ll get some of these valve converters. Just ordered a bunch from Amazon.
Thanks for the tip.
I’m 97 kg and found my hatchet rides best at 13 psi, whilst trying different pressures I had some good UPDs due to having it too high.
I made a little inline gauge for lower pressures so it was easier to check.
