Subject: RE: Michelin Pro 3 Race 700 x 20 don't exist?I've heard sources say that Michelin Pro 3's will be rolling out other widths in the near future; they started with 23's because of the demand, like Rick has said, and just like it took a few months to get the coloured tires out to distributors, the smaller sizes will be coming, but, according to what I've heard, only as small as 20's. MQsack - 2008-10-20 11:15 PM I have been loooking for the same, I run the smaller on the front 23 on rear as suggested by HED, Zipp reccomends 21's for their clinchers I was going to comment that some wheels were engineered to run a narrower tire - I'm thinking specifically the HED/Specialized trispoke, which was actually designed around an 18c tire width; HED's recommendation is to maximize the aerodynamic effect, even when offset by the decreased rolling resistance of a narrower tire, and suggest running no bigger than a 20 to see these benefits. Oh, and don't forget that red tires of any width will save you at least 30 seconds/10K no matter what speed you are travelling. |
