How wide a tire can a Trek Emonda (2020) accept?
Asking for my kid. Trek specs 25 or 28mm tires, so I suspect 28mm is the "official" upper limit, but that could be excessively conservative.
(I'm thinking of getting him some Rene Herse/Compass tires. I don't want to slow him down, so of course want to go as wide as possible.)

What if the OP has a different body than you, different hopes or expectations about how their bicycle should feel, and rides on different roads than you do?
