Cheers. Thats good to know.
I figured the 60 would handle at least as well as my 56s. Not sure about the effect of a 88mm rear.
I havent really thought about it untill a articulated lorry did a mm Close overtake on me, a couple of weeks ago. Had to fight not to get sucked under the rear section of the lorry. Scared the shit out of me if I'm honest. Luckily I was heading up the mountain not Down it. I probably just need to put that behind me.
No reason to be riding deep carbon in the Mountains though. I'll be quicker and safer of the alu tubbies.
