I understand, but there is a LOT of difference between 25mm and 38mm tires! If you find 38s to be to much (not surprising, as ideal width is strongly related to weight, and Lisas are apt to weigh less, often a whole lot less, than Joes or Steves) you might try a 32mm tire. And whatever size, make sure you adjust pressure for weight. My experience with Grand Bois 700x30s is that even 15 psi over can make an otherwise silky smooth riding tire brutally harsh on bad roads. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
