Cold inflation
pressure (bar)
*The cold pressure values are given for information and should be adjusted according to
track conditions (temperature, roughness, grip, amount of water, etc.).
Notes:
To ensure predictable and reproducible pressure increase, we strongly
recommend the use of a water vapor-free inflation gas (dry air, nitrogen, etc.).
To ensure a good valve seal, the cap should always be used.
The wheels are identified by the two engravings on the inside, corresponding to
their widths (see photos). Only the engraving with a cross (1) on the right
should be taken into account.
