I ran 25mm until last week when I fitted guards, the front one was too tight in area I couldn't adjust (under the forks) so I fitted a 23mm.
 
'23' on the Ribble (all that will fit without rubbing muguards
it was wearing the standard Yaw Nitro, when I bought it
Not too bad in the dry, but a bit grim in slippery conditions, replaced with Vittoria Rubino
Now on Schwalbe Lugano folders, since last week

Its predecessor, the Dyna-Tech had '20's on all its life, including when used as a commuter (as that's all that would fit under the Salmon Profils)

25mm Durano Plus on my commuter and 2 best bikes. Love the feel of them, very grippy, great puncture resistance and roll well.

Saying this, I have not ridden them in snowy weather but then again I probably wouldn't cycle in snowy weather anyways :smile:

I love Durano Plus', however, they only last a good six months of a 5 day 35 mile round commute.
Spesh Armadillo's which I use, though heavier, last twice as long.

Currently use 700c x 38 as my bike is an all year round bike. Will probably drop it down to some 28s when the 38s wear out but the ride will be a lot more harsher offroad :tongue:
 
700X32 Vittoria Randonneur Pros mostly on the Planet X XLC(on Archetypes) although I may experiment with some tubeless when/if the Randonneurs ever wear out(although I think the rear is starting to square off a bit).

Other bikes usually run 25c's apart from the Weigh single speeder which runs 23c Duranos.

Was looking at the armadillos actually and will give them a try when the current Durano Plus' wear out - thanks for the tip :smile:
