Cyclocross and Gravelbiking (Recreational) This has to be the most physically intense sport ever invented. It's high speed bicycle racing on a short off road course or riding the off pavement rides on gravel like : "Unbound Gravel". We also have a dedicated Racing forum for the Cyclocross Hard Core Racers.

I’ve ridden 23 and 25 mm tires on gravel for years, so looks like I’ll keep on with that.
Dang thats too bad. Wanna pass em on?

I have 40mm MSO in 120 tpi that have a wobble in the tread. I notice it on the stand, can sometimes notice it on pavement, and dont at all notice it on gravel.
I cant say it rides or feels any different and I've loved that model so much it hasn't been worth trying anything else. It's been super reliable and feels fast enough for me, so I keep the ever so slight wobble.
