Going from 23mm to 25mm or 28mm tires. Help me decide.
I'm making some changes to my TCR Advanced road bike to make it a little more comfortable to ride. I weigh 244 lbs and I'm just a hair under 6 ft tall. I already switched from an Arione VS to an Aliante VS and plan on switching the current 23mm tires to Continental Gatorskins in either 25 or 28 mm. Which one do I select? My occasional riding buddy says that 28mm will be too slow and overly soft. Another rider says that 25mm is the perfect balance.
What's your thoughts?
