    Lucas, awesome to see this! What tires do you suggest for these conditions. On 32s gatorskins I had a hard time with 80psi. Felt slippery. I like the cutting through the snow idea. Is it easy to keep the back from slipping out? Or front slipping side to side over bumps?

    • @lucasbrunelle
      @lucasbrunelle  4 роки тому +2

      I run everything for speed, 23mm tires at 120psi, however, you need to maintain a high speed so you can correct the bike when you start to slide out. At slower speeds like less than 15mph my tires don't do so well. At 30+ mph it's being on rails

    • @lucasbrunelle
      @lucasbrunelle  4 роки тому +1

      I usually run 100-110 but increased it for the snow. Many of the pros still ride 23, Egan for example, all world speed records have been broken on narrower tires. I regularly go 60+ mph and can feel the difference on a wider tire, more resistance and tougher to hang on and skitch, the bike drifts and is lighter with wider tires which becomes very dangerous. 23mm are not practical or as comfortable but for speed they're great
