I note that the 26" version is only rated up to 58 psi, and they recommend
only 45 psi. That seems incredibly low for a road tyre. Does the stiffness
of the construction make up for it? They do say:


Dutch Perfects have a similarly low pressure rating - I just ignore it
and put a ton in anyway - so far, so good.

I would be wary -- overpressure failures may not manifest immediately,
and will tend to fail out the sidewall.

i did something like that to a $$$ studded Nokian tire a few years back
in an ill-advised attempt to lower rolling resistance. I ran it at 100+
psi instead of the recommended 65 max and blew out a sidewall after 4
months. Front wheel. Fortunately it happened while it was parked in my
office and not out on the ice.
