Tire Pressure Question

Evening,

I got myself a new e-bike that has Kenda 42-622 (700x42C) hybrid tires that indicate Min 50 PSI, Max 80 PSI. What would you recommend to set the PSI to?

I’m 240-250 pounds and ride the bike on either street, paved rail trails, or light gravel.

Reason I’m asking is that my previous e-bike had fat tires that weight up to 70 pounds (total bike wgt) and the PSI range was much lower, so inflating these even to 50 PSI makes me a bit nervous as the bike is only 40 pounds. I assume it’s due to the difference of the diameter of the wheels but I rather check!

Thanks!

iOS Bike Tracking App

Evening folks!

Looking for some suggestions on a good bike route tracking app to use. I know of Strava and Komodo, but I’m aware they were bought out and therefore I don’t trust their data privacy. Any suggestions?

I use my Garmin Enduro to track my biking sessions, but look for something on my phone to for both a map during rides and being able to share routes. I saw there is TrailLink, which is great for finding trails but does not track. Tried OrganicMaps but it gets me lost as it keeps showing abandoned railroads that look like trails 🤣. The Aventon app is nice but it drains the battery super fast.

Thanks in advance!
