Pretty interesting read.
This comes after a long (and friendly) debate with my local Trek store manager. After throwing
Aeolus Pro 37s on my Checkpoint SL6 for better road days he was pretty passionate about the 44mm extralight supple tires.
I've been back/forth thinking I was silly for this setup when the general forums and friends vibe is "put 28mms on your road bike" But I found the article quite convincing. I did buy some Conti GT5000s in 32 and 28 to compare but while they're being shipped figured I'd turn it over to the community for thoughts since much of it is above my head.
