Is the Patagonia X/T a crowned tire like the MT? I ask because, after lowering the tire pressure to 29 psi, my tires are still not contacting pavement at the edges. These are 10 ply rated tires. Advice greatly appreciated.

I just don't think a lot of people run this tire. Not that they were ignoring you. What'd you find out ?

I don't know either, but I'm watching this thread because the Patagonia X/T is one of the tires I have on my list when I upgrade sometime soon.

The tires do have some crown compared to, say, a K02. I read somewhere that, after a tire warms up, the increase in pressure will only be around 2 psi if the tire is properly inflated. I don't know if that is true or not, but I'm going to keep mine at 30psi cold. That pressure took a lot of the bounce out of the ride.
