Default Air Pressure

What air pressure does everyone run for off road? Without rim locks. Trails I ride are everything from mud to sand to rocks.

Thanks,

I run 10-12lbs.
Notideal for the road but not too bad either.
Works well off road.

I put rim locks on the last time I changed tyres. Just a precaution.
A friend tore 2 valve stems but I have never had an issue.

Well everyone will give me a bad time for saying this but I run 25 front and back on all conditions. If I can't ride everywhere I want to this way, then chances are I don't need to be riding there.

I've been using 30 Psi front and rear, on and off-road. Not for the novice but if you have some skills it makes for a lively ride and plenty of slide action.
Yeeeeehah.

Also 28 Front & Rear. A little rough in the sand for sure but I just slow down.

BIG guys need a bit more pressure so that they don't dent a rim

I've been running 30 on the rear ever since I spun a tire on the rim and got stranded on the road not long ago.
