The best tubeless road tires for almost half price. 25s are $49. I picked up 28s for $56, 30s also $56.

I also got some really cheap rekons for my mountain bike from this site. They are great.

Road tire prices remain stubbornly high, criminal. I refuse to pay $$$ for Conti GP 5k TR, have gone to Pirelli P Zero and Maxxis High Road TR, buy from places like Bikeinn

Thoughts for endurance road bike … presently At 32. Thinking 30 will help make it more efficient

I think for road bikes 28 is the de-facto standard these days. Last year was the first time all Tour de France teams used 28, too.

My triathlon bike doesn't fit bigger than 25. Difference is noticeable.

"the 28mm transparent version of the Grand Prix 5000 S TR rolls significantly slower than the version with black sidewalls. Our 28mm transparent sample is also considerably heavier than our 28mm black sidewall sample, resulting in a rolling resistance that increases by more than 20% at the lowest tire pressures. "

I wouldn't change 32 for 30. You're not gaining anything. In fact I think 32 may have lower rolling resistance on pavement than 30.

700x30 is hard to find for a decent price. This is great.

If your bike can fit 30's I'd highly recommend using those. I have 28c and 30c tires and prefer 30c. They are just as fast or faster and more comfortable.

I'll take to the bike shop and ask them tomorrow (if this is still for sale). Thanks for the recommendation.

No, margin difference and may even be slower.

You won't notice a difference aside from needing to run slightly higher pressure in the 02's. But you could satisfy your curiousity and give it a try.

You mean lower pressure on 32 compared to 30?
