I want 24s. 25s don't fit on my Pro Miyata. (Do any of you know of a close reach brake that has more clearance underneath than a very close SunTour Cyclone? Brake bridge has a couple of mm to spare with 25s. Pads are pushed up all the way on the Cyclones. Rim fit is perfect but not a mm to spare.)
I"m running Conti 22c Giros on GEL330s now. Not a happy combo. To feel safe with those light rims, I don't feel confident with less than 100 psi. 100 psi is pretty bouncy on those not very "soft" tires. Trying to get some GP4s built u but they are newer, deeper ones and my 300/302 spokes that work beautifully on every other shallow rim don't here. (I want to go Veloflex Race 23c on the GP4s, Vitt Corsa SDpeed on the GEL 330s. Both should run just fine on that bike and be very happy tires at 100 psi and enough bigger that the end result should be pretty bullet-proof from a rim standpoint.)
