My rubber...

I am going to be running 26 x 1.3" Continental SportContact tires on my Volae. I liked them last fall on my 100K rides - fast enough and a nice ride on rough roads. Not the lightest fastest tires for sure, but I am aiming for a decent consistent pace on my brevets. I am not trying to break any records. I do have some 26 x 1.1" Schwalbe Stelvios on hand if I find that the Conti's don't make me happy in the long run. But, if the Conti's are relatively flat proof they'll stay on. I like having some extra volume so I don't have to be super careful when riding at night.
