Tyres are one of the most important elements when it comes to the performance of your mountain bike - after all, they’re the only thing connecting you and your bike to the ground.

There is a vast amount of variation when it comes to tyres. Some, such as their diameter, are obvious, others, such as their carcass construction less so.

Sound scary? Well don't worry I’m going to talk through a few rules of thumb to help you get your tyre pressures just right.
