I know that once the bead has seated properly there is no need to run the liner anywhere near the 110psi. It will hold just fine at much lower pressure but 0 psi I dont get. Is that just for sand riding. Please explain that a bit more.

Wouldn't suggest a trials tire for Six Days but the Pirelli MT43 holds up no problem to extended road sections. That and the Mitas are the only ones to really do that.

Good luck with your Six Day attempt.
