I'm thinking it's a bodyweight thing. 30's are folding on me. 32's don't. At a comparably comfy pressure. I weigh 175lbs.
I'm not obsessing -- I have these awesome top quality 30's and I'm surprised how bad they feel. It's a real bummer. Nothing overly detailed about it.
But who knows maybe wheel flex is involved. I haven't ever felt that yet but it could be. But I'm not keen on gluing/regluing tires that much. However, I *was* just bequeathed another set of Cane Creek tubie wheels so I have two matching sets of wheels that I *could* compare tires on if my can of glue was fuller. ...I'll order another.
