Looking For New Tyres

[chrisb1357]

Hi all,

I have been running 700x35 Schwalbe Marathon Plus on my Giant CSR 4 for 3 years now and I am looking for a change and maybe going for more of a road / thinner tyre as I tend to always ride on road now. Not sure on my rim width so I will need to measure this. What sort of tyre should I be looking at as I don't want to break the bank changing them

Stick with the same tyre but go to a 700 x 28?

What about this brand 'Vittoria Zaffiro II Road Tyres'

Zaffiro's are dog do-do, in my experience. If you want Vittoria, maybe look at Rubino Pro or the slick version... they have decent rep.

I had 28mm Specialized tyres on a couple of bikes, one fairy visit in around 2000 miles probably, seemed pretty bombproof

They come in a 32mm or a 28mm
