Q pressure of road bike tyres

The optimal pressure for road bike tires largely depends on the tire width, the rider’s weight, and riding conditions. Traditionally, it was common to inflate narrow tires (23mm) to high pressures, around 100-120 psi, to decrease rolling resistance. However, contemporary practices and research suggest a trend towards wider tires (25mm or larger) at lower pressures, roughly 80-100 psi, to improve comfort and grip without significantly increasing rolling resistance. Riders should also consider their weight; heavier riders may need slightly higher pressures to avoid pinch flats. Always check the tire sidewall for the manufacturer’s recommended pressure range and consider using a pressure that provides a good balance between efficiency, grip, and comfort for your specific riding conditions.

Q what are the commonly used chemicals and lubricants onboard

No, pure silicates are not good lubricants. They can be abrasive and could cause more damage to the surfaces they are supposed to protect. However, silicate derivatives, specifically silica nanoparticles, are sometimes used as an additive to enhance the performance of certain lubricants. They help in reducing friction, wear and tear between surfaces. But in their pure form, silicates are not suitable for lubrication.
