You were but I wasn't, I was out of a pressure meter for a while and the tires felt good (hard enough) however recently when going through curves the rear felt less solid-on-the-road than usual. Got me a new gauge, and sure enough both were down to 15 psi... :whistle:

That's the pressure recommended for a lawn mower, not a bike.

It does illustrate though that it doesn't matter how much exact pressure should be in the tires, a couple pounds more or less make no difference.

Now they're at the factory recommended pressure again.
