One morning on the #BikeBus last week, my kid was riding a little slow and said their bike was hard to ride. I didn't realize they got home that their tire pressure was super low.
Q4. What tire pressure do you prefer, and does that pressure vary by cycle/ride, etc?

@jef Have you ridden much on smaller wheels before this? I definitely ride differently vs the 26in front wheel, and potholes are more jarring (#whatPressureYouRunning?)
@graham_freeman @kevinschaper depending on slope, whether you would come out ahead by a kid holding down the front vs getting out and walking, in terms of how much power you can add to that patch of traction ( #whatPressureYouRunning ?) although grin controllers might be more tune-able, specifically limiting torque. A slow-wind motor like the hill topper maxes out at 12mph. I'm holding the back of the bike in one hand and climbing these stairs with the throttle here: https://urbanists.social/@enobacon/110063508673698827
