• Although I’m more in the camp that “gravel” bikes are a bit of a con, we should all still be riding cross bikes with 33-35c tyres.

    I have 44c tyres on my bike currently and they just feel really heavy

  • Some 45 tyres felt heavier than other, also look at the weight as there are some around 450g (light) up to 650g (heavy).

    It is also why 650b is nice, big and light.

    My 650x47c are 401 grams, tubeless.
    My wife has a 650x42c that is 373 grams, tubeless.
    Nothing heavy about that, and they are full of squishy comfortable air.
