Quick one, are 23mm conti GP 4000s likely to be slightly taller than other similar tyres? Mine are about half a mm (honestly) too big for my brake bridge on this http://www.imgur.com/RRmE4Yy.jpeg , so I can't slam the wheel.
I'd really rather not go to 20mm (like the Veloflexes in the picture) for road riding but if I slam them then there is very, very slight rubbing on the brake bridge.
I would like puncture protection, but I have a feeling that 23s with puncture protection is never going to work on the frame, which is a pity.
(Yes Ed, I know anything below 25 is silly for general road riding.)
