700x35 is gravel bike size, full smoothie slicks are available in that size and they'll fit on just about anything but a strict road bike.

Any smaller and they'd be pointless, and you wouldn't get a tube for them. I like the idea of being able to run a 1.5in tube in my 2.35 tyres though, because i'd probably end up with a lighter wheel...

Good to hear of your experience with the full tyre, what puts me off the most the the idea of a non-rubber tread. My trailer runs barrow wheels and i tried solid PU foam first, but it runs far better on pneumatic ones. Weight is about the same. These are 8in x 4.8in though!
