Reduced pressure by 5psi per tire and was surprised how much more comfortable and less bouncy on rough roads it was for downhills.
latest setting is 75 psi rear 60 psi front for 28mm GP5000
(at least on the rear tire) I felt 70 psi was too squishy and 80 bounced a bit on rough roads doing fast descents. Really surprised

Interesting and timely thread for me. I haven't run 28s in the past. I run 25 mm on my road bikes, and 32+ on the gravel or commuter bikes. But I just ordered a pair of 28s for when I want to ride the gravel bike on the road. It has 25 mm interior rims and am wondering what pressures will work. I'm guessing 70 psi in the back (I'm about 68 kilos). Some experimentation will happen.
