Did you include your weight + the bike's weight? If you didn't, just add 25-30lbs to your weight and put the # in. I ran the numbers and to get that pressure would have to weigh 100# and have a 25# bike for a total of 125#. If that's your weight, then try it and see how it feels that low. If you don't like it that low, then you really don't need tires that wide and could try some narrower ones like the Maxy Fasty.<http://www.rivbike.com/products/show/650b-x-3279-maxy-fasty-kevlar/10-087> Have fun experimenting!
