have been conducting some research this weekend on tyre size and our current party line, now, believe me, i am as dogmatic and ideologically pure as they come. truly.
it's, really hard existing in the world with such a perfect moral compass, accurately calibrated between electoral pragmatism and idealism, to be a perfectly rational, logical person who is morally and ethically balanced in regards to what mandates a wanker bike
but as i was riding on my own wanker bike this week, 29x2.1 knobblies with mud clearance on post war new town segregated cycle ways. after having been forced, due to mechanicals related to my wanker bikes construction, to ride 700x35 slicks, it may have affected my resolve.
2" may just be too big,
now, before this triggers a leadership challenge, please let me defend myself. when i looked for smaller tyres, luxury ones, the largest you can get readily from true wanker brands, is 700x43 or 700x42, excluding mtb specific tyres. now members, i don't expect you all to throw out such house hold names as ultradynamico? argubly a pillar of WBH
I propose we allow 700x42 and 650x48, no less, no smaller, but this would simply allow us to strengthen our ranks and open the amount of product we can buy.
as we know, the more options we have to buy, the more brain worms we can grow, the less we are to think, reflect or contemplate our existence between each bike project.
also, here are some wanker bikes,
