is there any tangible loss of speed on a standard road ride, that would stop you taking it on a club run for example?
Don't really notice much difference, ran 38mm 650b on club ride and hill climb.
A lots less of a difference if its a normal road bike with 650b tyres.
Riding with the same tyres in 700c might make a difference but haven't ridden them in that sizes for ages to tell.

To you guys rocking road plus/ 38c+ / adventure bikes in road guise, is there any tangible loss of speed on a standard road ride, that would stop you taking it on a club run for example? Trying to work out how limiting these setups are in that direction as an expense of being much more off-road capable
