Default Tyre Pressures

Can anyone tell me what the correct pressures are supposed to be for a 2000 W plate curvey, with BT20 rear?

I can't find the right pressures anywhere and want to be safe.

Thanks

33/36 is alright.

You can increase or drop them a bit depending on personal preference. There is no "right" pressure.

33psi front, 36psi rear is standard setting. Some folks vary a little from these...................

Doubt you'll notice 1psi on the road.
