It feels kind of dumb going that tight, though, on a bike that is meant to be pounded a little. On the rear that size works fine. I'm currently running 35 front, 38 rear, at 50 psi, and feeling pretty good about it.

The 700x38 Barlow Pass off the Pinnacle were unfortunately a no-go.<br /><br />I'm not at all disappointed to have ended up with a different frame. The matte black on black as you say looks quite nice. My 61cm frame, as shipped, weighed in at 17 pounds 8 ounces. An astounding figure for a 61cm bike with no particularly flyweight parts. If one were so inclined, I'd bet some judicious component swaps could save a pound.<br /><br />I'll weigh the wheels when my new tires come in, but I will say that putting on the Barlow Pass with generic tubes pushed the system weight above 19 pounds. Still remarkable of course.<br /><br />I'm only moderately disappointed that 38s are a no-go. They provided a plenty plush ride on the Archos but compared to a 700x28 from yesteryear, even a 35 holds a lot of air.samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16215727841155911987noreply@blogger.com
