Kenda Kwest 100 psi tires (presta valve) I am pretty new to bicycles.

Got my hands on Kenda Kwest 100 PSI tires with presta valves and I have a couple of questions about inflating them.


Using a floor pump, do I need to pump them a bit over 100 PSI? When taking the pump head off, it feels like the PSI drops a little bit due to airflow. 
What's a good floor pump? I just moved and the movers lost mine.


Please kindly let me know. Thanks in advance.
The puff you hear when you disconnect is mostly air remaining in the pump hose, not the tire.  The tube valves are very fast to reseal when you pop the pump off.

Most quality tires have a range of pressures. Some controversy exists on the "best" pressure to run, the current thinking has folks running about 5psi under the upper limit.  As someone earlier alluded, Sheldon Brown's website is a wealth of vetted information.  Bike shops tend to have the bike pumps that last and work the best. 

Personal note, I like a gauge up where I can read it without magnification or stopping my pumping to squat down to read it.  Glad you're riding.
