I have a comfort/hybrid bike that I use exclusively on street and rail trails. It currently has a
set of Bontrager Select Invert tires (2.00 x 26 "), about a year old. They work OK, but I'm in
search of a little bit more speed (those kids on their road bikes zooming by are starting to annoy
me) for the same effort and was thinking of replacing the Bontragers with a set of Ritchey Tom
Slick 1.4 tires. These are quite a bit lighter and 1/3 narrower in diameter plus they are rated for
100 psi (I normally use just over 70 psi on the Bontragers). They have nice reviews on the web
review sites.
Smart move for $40?
