2kg/cm2 in PSI

In the manual it lists the required tire pressure as 2 kg/cm2 and I only have a PSI gauge. Does that convert to 28.4psi?
It cost me $0.75 to put air in my tires this morning and I realised that was the equivalent of half a week's fuel!!?

Under the seat on the sticker there is tire pressure information on my scoot and it says both 30 psi for the front and rear tire. But on the rear sidewall it says 25psi cold and the front says 36psi cold, weird huh?

Just run 30 PSI & you'll be good.

A cheap bike pump works for filling up scooter tires since they're so small. I use a bike pump on my buddy and measure the tire pressure with a separate gauge. Takes me about 5-6 pumps per 5psi.

Mmmm Jello. I'm fortuneate enough to have access to Nitrogen at work so it costs me $0. I like it a little better than pump air, but it is a small difference.
