Title: Why you should be using 25s instead of 23s if you want to go faster

Interesting article in the IET magazine if you want to understand why bigger tyres are better and what the pros are using.

I'm running 28's...  They might drag a little (marginal gains are lost on me) however on the upside I've had one puncture in nearly 2 years of riding my bike.

Why you should ride 25mm is because it was the narrowest tyre I could find on sale in Bridgend when I needed a new one NOW on Friday!
