New tires
I decided to expand my horizons when I went through my last set of GP4Ks.
What I’ve liked:
- Michelin Pro4 “Endurance”; picked up 25c and 28c versions of both and run them on my winter/travel/B bikes. Boy, do these run large! I’ve tried them on smooth roads, carriage roads, light trails but nothing too gravelly. I suppose with the slick treads they won’t be great in anything too burly, but I have put them through their paces in sopping wet conditions on tarmac and find them to have great traction. They are also really easy to put on/take off, giving me peace of mind for those extended jaunts. I’ll look to find more when possible.
- Pirelli P Zero Race; I put the 26c version of these on my A bikes last year and am loving them. Again, easy to put on/take off, and the road feel is great. At a stated 205g for the 26c, they are plenty light for me. They also run true to size. The 26c really is a 26mm tire.
I just picked up a pair of the Pirelli Cinturato Velo 35c to try on the Ritchey Cross as a “wide road-ish” tire. Need to mount these up and give them a whirl.
Great thread btw.
