At 185 lbs. and a solo rider I'm currently running 22 in the rear tires and 18 in the shocks and the ride is decent.
Still playing around with both though to try and find the best ride for these great Michigan roads!

I weigh 185 lbs. Solo I run 22 psi in rear tires, 36 psi in front tire and 20 psi in shocks. When 2 up I run 23 - 24 psi in rear tires, 36 in front tire and 50 psi in shocks.

22 psi in the rear tires, 35-40 psi in the shocks. I'm fat. Run the same in wife's Tri, she isn't fat, just easy to remember these numbers. <img src="images/smilies/laugh.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Laugh" class="inlineimg" />
 
Thanks for the feedback everyone.

I have found I like about 22 psi in the rear tires 38 to 39 psi in the front tire and around 29 to 30 psi in the shocks.

Correction,

Sorry, I meant to say about 24 psi not 22 psi. I like 24 to 25 psi in the rear tires for two up riding and 29 to 30 psi in the shocks.

Thanks Again Everyone, :)

Tried 22 psi Today And Really Liked It

We tried 22 psi in the rear tires today on the Freewheeler two up on a 200 mile ride. The trike had a much better ride to it than it did with the 24 psi we had been using.

The 30 psi in the shocks and the 38 psi in the front tire along with the 22 psi in the rear tires seem to be the sweet spot for our weight. (Best ride we have had to date on the Freewheeler) ThumbUp

Thank's everyone again for all the feedback and the 22 psi in the rear tires suggestions by so many.

Ride Safe All, :)
