18mm tire

I'm now 58 years old.
In my younger days we "knew" narrow and high pressure was fast.
So I rode 18mm @ 120++psi. (Wolber ... if anyone remembers those)
Yes 18mm did exist, not a typo!

Come to find out, science and systematic testing has proven we were wrong.
Wider and lower pressure are the new fast.

Welcome to the 21st Century
