Tires/Inner Tube recommendation

gene_pish@hotmail.com · January 2, 2012 4:15PM

I was trying to look thru my IMWI 2011Group information to find out the race plans folks had submitted which showed which tire/tube combinations are most recommended.

I couldn't help myself; darn snow, and found a killer deal on a set of Zipp 808's (unused)....

Anyway, I would like to get some feedback on recommendations for tire/tube recommendations from the EN community.

Thanks!

I go here work my way to tires and roller data, and choose tire/tube combos towards the top of the list.

I think there was a huge thread about this a several months ago. Personally I use a Bontrager R4 Aero up front, and a Vittoria Open Corsa CX (or whatever, can't remember the excact name but lots of EN-er have that one) on the back. Both clinchers. Most folks use latex tubes but I haven't found latext tubes with short enough stems to use with my disc, so I use regular butyl tubes. "QTube" brand because they have the sortest stems I could find.
