For more traction, subtract about 3-5 PSIs, and for higher speeds, add about 3-5 PSIs. Lighter riders should reduce pressure by 3-5 PSI, while heavier riders should add the same pressure. Reduce the tire pressure by 2-3 PSI in hot weather (32\u00b0C \/ 90\u00b0F or hotter)<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tire-pressure-guide.jpg\" alt=\"person checking the equipment of an electric scooter\" class=\"wp-image-3868\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tire-pressure-guide.jpg 600w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tire-pressure-guide-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tire-pressure-guide-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to find the exact tire pressure for my electric scooter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Factors like your weight, terrain, tire size, weather, and your preference for speed or traction determine the right tire pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find your ideal tire pressure, you have two straightforward options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>check your user manual that came with your scooter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>check the tires themselves, the recommended pressure is usually written on the side of the tire<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If the manual and the tire suggest different values, prioritize the manual. Scooter manufacturers have tested the tires on your specific model, so their recommendations are more reliable for real-world use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tire value is typically the maximum pressure, not necessarily the ideal for your situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I first got my Xiaomi M365 Pro, I didn&#8217;t exactly know what the tire pressure should be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was some conflicting online advice and limited information in the manual. I later realized that tire pressure requires attention and isn&#8217;t a &#8220;set-and-forget&#8221; matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended tire pressures for popular electric

and 50 PSI.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After rigorous stress tests, I recommend specific tire pressures based on rider weight:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>110-155 lbs \/ 50-70 kg: 35-40 PSI for the front wheel, 40-50 PSI for the rear wheel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>155-200 lbs \/ 70-90 kg: 40-45 PSI for the front wheel, 45-55 PSI for the rear wheel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>200-220 lbs \/ 90-100 kg: 45-50 PSI for

flats is increased<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you suspect valve problems, it&#8217;s wise to consult an authorized dealer for repairs or replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Different tire pressures in the front and rear tires<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some scooter owners, and some brands, recommend less tire pressure in the front tire, and more in the rear. As you can see in the Xiaomi example above, the recommended front tire pressure is lower than the one of the rear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Others recommend the opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This usually depends on where the hub <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooter-motors\/\">motor<\/a> is located in single-motor scooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, it is in the front wheel, which can cause increased front tire pressure due to motor-generated heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electric scooter tire pressure factors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the most important factors affective tire pressure for scooters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weather<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/using-a-tire-pressure-gauge-1024x470.webp\" alt=\"using a tire pressure gauge\" class=\"wp-image-20463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/using-a-tire-pressure-gauge-1024x470.webp 1024w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/using-a-tire-pressure-gauge-300x138.webp 300w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/using-a-tire-pressure-gauge-768x353.webp 768w, https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/using-a-tire-pressure-gauge.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Excessive heat, from extended rides or hot weather, raises tire pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In temperatures of 32\u00b0C \/ 90\u00b0F or higher, reduce tire pressure by 2-3 PSI for hot weather riding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In cold weather, you might consider a slight PSI increase in theory, but it&#8217;s safer to maintain lower pressure for better traction on icy, snowy, or wet surfaces during winter rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid the hassle of daily pressure adjustments based on weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For hot summers, reduce tire pressure by 2-3 PSI at the start and revert by summer&#8217;s end.

If you weigh less than 155 lbs \/ 70 kg, reduce pressure by 3-5 PSI or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you weigh more than 200 lbs \/ 90 kg, increase pressure by 3-5 PSI or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experiment with different pressures to find your ideal riding experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Higher tire pressure will provide you with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>higher speed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>fewer flats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>better steering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>less shaking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>better suspension and a smoother riding experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>better range and performance overall (in most cases)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, lower tire pressure will give you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>better traction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>possibly better climbing abilities because of the improved traction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>better performance on wet, slippery, or muddy terrain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That means going with normal or slightly increased tire pressure for most situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In hilly or wet areas, consider lowering tire pressure by a few PSI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to check the tire pressure on my electric scooter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two ways to check your tire pressure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>using a tire pressure gauge<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lightly kicking the tire<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The second method doesn&#8217;t measure pressure precisely but offers a quick, tool-free check.

For practical purposes, it&#8217;s often expressed in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bar_(unit)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bars (Ba)<\/a>, where 1 Bar equals 100,000 Pascals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the Imperial System uses the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pounds_per_square_inch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pounds per Square Inch unit (PSI)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Metric System is widespread globally and the Imperial System is mainly used in the US, PSI is the commonly accepted unit for pressure, although Bars are also used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Bar equals 14.5 PSI, and 1 PSI is 0.068 Bars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use this <a href=\"https:\/\/escooternerds.com\/electric-scooter-calculators\/bar-psi-converter\/\">pressure converter<\/a> for a simple calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For quick conversions, use Google by typing, for instance, &#8220;45 PSI to Bar&#8221; or &#8220;3 Bar to PSI&#8221; to get instant results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"accordionContainer\"><div class=\"accordionTab\"><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"accordionCheckbox1\" \/>\n\t\t<label for=\"accordionCheckbox1\" class=\"accordionLabel\">Can you ride an e-scooter with flat tires?<\/label>\n\t\t<div class=\"accordionContent\"><p>No, it&#8217;s not safe to ride an e-scooter with flat tires as it can lead to loss of control and accidents.
