It seems a lot of BF is now on a bandwagon that's claiming comfort is king. No longer is priority performance, but cushiness. 15% drop used to be determinant of 'proper'. Now we hear that 100psi for tubed 25mm tire is overkill? (though it probably is for a front tire, I think most 15% drop calculators ask for about 100psi for a ~160lb rider).
