I should preface, this by sharing that we run Arenberg and Raven tubulars, but even with these supple tires, paved riding conditions aren’t great, to put it mildly.
So I’m now thinking we will get the stock wheels but change to the Rene Herse 38c Barlow’s and evaluate after some time on the bike. This will be my first big brand carbon non-custom bike in 20 years. So I’m certainly not selling my Serotta Ti…maybe my custom Geo Gunnar Sport but I’m excited to get out on the road with the Domane.
