“Maybe I started with too little pressure in my tires,” Victor Campanaerts said after taking fifth in the Omloop. But is there ideal tire air pressure on Flemish roads? And how important is that? In the movie Wuyts & Boonen, Tom Boonen tells you everything you need to know about tire pressure. The ideal tire pressure depends on all kinds of factors: temperature, humidity, tube type, etc. Knowing the ideal starting tire pressure, and also entering the final at the right pressure, is a science that is not yet fully understood. Bad tire pressure is bad for mental health, because you feel it right away.”
