32 PSI was what I tested and came up with being about right all that time ago [ blimey, 16 years ago ? !] should be in the Operators Handbook ?

It is in either the POH or the manual. However, it is not easy to find. I spent about 2 hrs. a couple of years ago and found the 32 lb. number. Like many things in the manual, "it is in there somewhere."

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Guys,
Tyre Pressure has always been in section 7 of the operators handbook and section 29T page 7 of the build manual.
I know, who reads that!
2 bar or 30 PSI. I use 35 personally based on tire manufacturers recommendation for the Michelin. Air Hawk doesn't seem to give one so stick with 35 all around.
Note that I also have very low wheel pants so the pressure is a bit more than normal to keep my pants from draggin'... My wheel does not show below my pants and you can't get a standard wheel chock under it. But it does give a bit more speed.
More on that some other time... 12AY does 146 Knots with the new pants vice 135 with the old pants at 5500/34 inches at 1000 MSL. And it is a trigear. Of course three years ago I thought I had the slowest Europa ever, but I found that my MP gauge was defective. I changed wheel pants, gear legs etc. then figured out it was the MP gauge. Duh. Gear legs do make a difference as does lowering the wheel pants on speed. But don't land on grass with my pants on a really soggy field unless you want to do some repairs... Ah the compromises we make.
I have a more than disgruntled customer who learned the hard way. I told him I was concerned about raising his pants to 4 inches high. His trigear only goes 130 at max cruise. Not very spectacular...but he can land on very rough strips... Basically he has mud flaps not speed fairings. On the motor glider, I recommend the higher pants as it doesn't mater as much with the VNE at 127 unless you are soaring and going for efficiency. The extra 100 pounds of the motor glider though squishes that tire set a bit more.
Regards,
Bud

According to my Manual (dated August 1998) the correct tyre pressure for the monowheel is 18psi. I usually use about 20psi
