  • Yes, open pros...

    Make sense, they're fine until you go beyond 28mm, which result in needing to pump the tyres a bit more to stop from feeling overly squirmy in corner, which take away the advantage of a larger tyres.

    I dropped the pressure as a test today.
    No problem with cornering (as I knew already)... I know the thing you describe, feeling like the rim offsets itself from the tire's contact point on the road, under lateral pressure... I don't have this problem. It feels stable... It's just I feel I need to push harder than when inflated up to tyre's max allowance, which it what I'm used to do on my bikes in general. Maybe I'm not meant to have big tyres, which is annoying these 35c are bang on with the bike's proportion, from a superfluous aesthetics point of view...

  • It's basically finding the right balance, once you worn out your Open Pro, just get some nice wide Mavic A319 (or similar) to work best with the larger tyres.

    35mm and 13mm internal is not a great combination.
