Recently placed some 35mm (33mm measured width) Schwalbe Marathon Supremes on my Sam, and am surprised at how nicely they ride at 35-40 PSI. Was riding 43mm GravelKing SS (not SS+, and not SKs), which were also nice. But I didn’t need the side mini-knobs, as I do not ride off-road, and the r

My custom Riv--designed for long rando rides uses a 650b x 42 mm tire (currently Grand Bois Hetre EL). I love them. My Roadeo uses 700c x ~31mm Grand Bois Cypres EL. It is not as smooth riding as the 42 mm tires, but I am still very comfortable and don't feel like I "need" wider tires. I've done

Correctumundo, the shortest Clems in both styles have the bendy seatstays on the smaller sizes, the H went through at least (I think only) two incarnations. The big difference now when looking at used H and L bikes is the newer Ls are markedly stretched in comparison to any H you will find. Jo

I’m not at all sure, but I think the H had at least one run with the new longer geo in 2019. It has more cream accents than the older ones is the only other thing I have noticed. On Wednesday, August 10, 2022 at 9:48:41 AM UTC-7 Paul Choi wrote: > This might be premature but I have a FFHS 52 C

That's interesting. I'd put my money on Eric being right and bike insights being wrong. The wayback machine internet archive should hold the answers. The Hs didn't last all that long before they decided to just do Ls. They may even have dropped the upper bar an H version BECAUSE they wante

For road riding on a compliant frame a 32-33mm feels "just right". Even a liitle more narrow is good. My favorite tires these days is a Schwalbe Marathon Racer 35mm which measures 32-33mm on a Mavic A719 @37-42 PSI. I don't notice them, and that's the point. This is with my Franklin road bike.
