The Manuel says 29psi front this seems to be rather low ? What have others ran their tyres at

Stick to the manual. It's a pretty light bike!

To put it simply:

Too soft means more grip, but will be less agile (harder to tip into corners etc).
Too hard will make it easy to flick about, but smaller contact patch which means less grip.
