The nice thing is, there are plenty of high end, super supple and fast tires in the market now in 40mm , so you do not need to be held back by a wider tire on pavement either.
I need a 38-40mm R2G tire that works on 25F asphalt, that digs through deep oak leaves, and that can climb 3-5% 33F mud. Think modeling clay training to be a Slurpee. Thoughts?
