Hi!
Since Alienator says that I am the fastest, most skilled, most good looking cyclist he ever seen I am thinking of treating my self with a pair of new tires.

I have read so many things about these continental GP4000 S ones and I think I am grabbing the bait...
Basically I also looked at the GP4000 S ver. II but they dont have them in that shop that I found a good deal. They also say that basically the ver. II ones differ only in the color arrangments but they also say that the latest GP4000 S' s are "kinda better" then the first ones... Anyway it comes down to this:
They have an offer on 23mm GP4000S ones, 2 for 54euro. Its a pretty good price since in the LBS's around here they sell for about 50euro each...
They dont have an offer for 25mm ones but a pair of them costs around 58euro... Just 4 euro more...
It says somewhere that except the little bit of extra weight and the little less aerodynamic profile the 25mm ones actually run smoother and have less rolling resistance then the 23mm.
At the moment I am riding on a pair of training wire 25mm ones so either is gonna feel like a new bike probably. But is there an advantage on either 25 or 23mm?
Thanks.
