    I think it's down to personal taste, but I use the following pressures on my TKC's (which spend most of their life in London or on the M25!!)

    Front = 34 - 36

    Rear = 30 - 32

    For serious off-road you would maybe want to drop those pressures, but my for my first and only venture across Cumbria at the National Meet I didn't change them (although there wasn't any deep mud to contend with)

    Admitedly on a TA, but off tarmac mine used to run at between 10 and 18 rear, ish 15-20 front, depending on how rocky. (Rockyer = higher!!)
