Where the Rubber Meets the Road: Rethinking Road Bike Tire Sizes and Pressures

Description:

For years, the common thinking when it came to road bike tires was that they needed to be narrow and pumped up to high pressures for the fastest roll. Some key studies are now disproving those long-held beliefs, though, with supporting data telling us that what we should actually riding are wider tires and lower pressures. CyclingTips US technical editor James Huang joins us for this week’s CyclingTips podcast, along with Silca company owner Josh Poertner (formerly the technical director for Zipp) and Jan Heine from Bicycle Quarterly and Compass Bicycles.
