hey i need to find a set of clincher tires smaller than 700x22 that will work well on the boards at the ADT center (LA Velodrome). if anyone has a recommendation please, shoot it my way. thanks!

oh when i say smaller, i mean in diameter like a 700x19 or so...

still looking. i think they are also referred to as a 700 x 3/4 sized tire...

What is the advantage of such a small tire? Just curious.

Conti makes a 19mm tubular. I do not think you will find a clincher that is smaller than 20mm.

I think I have some Michelin Axials in 20mm kicking around...

Veloflex makes several models of their open tubulars in 700x20

i could find down to an 18,, tubular, but i was hoping for clinchers. my track bike wont clear a 22 up front, so im trying to skip straight to a 19 since its going on a highly maintained indoor wooden velodrome and i dont need to worry about bumps etc...
