Josh, just curious -- have you played with pressures in 29er tires, with tubes? I run about 35 to 40 for hard packed flat gravel rail trails, and 25 to 30 for in the woods.  Terrain of latter is mostly hard clay, some rocks, roots, ruts, occasional sand and loose coarse gravel.  Pressures seem fine for both types riding.  But interested to know what your experience has been on that... Thanks.

Another question:  what bar width do you find optimal for a 29er? I have a low rise, about 685 wide, but was thinking of swapping for a flat bar, either same width or a bit narrower.  Want to improve handling, and extend my reach just a wee bit.  I'm thinking narrower may not be better....correct?

Cheers....
