Therefore, I'm seeking a set to accommodate 700c x 28-35s.
I'm getting mixed messages from D-back. One rep says the front is 15mm, the other says it's 12mm. Could you please clarify? THX!
The one I have is a 12TA. Bike will easily handle that width of tire.
Your road situation sounds like urban warfare and survival skills in high demand. Traffic is part of what finds me on back roads and trails now. Start making plans for those dreams so you get to 'em
