Are you running a durable training tyre on race day? You could be losing watts! At 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗴, we break in more detail the key considerations you need to be thinking about: ✅ 𝗗𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆: Run a durable, puncture-resistant tyre for all your training miles, and switch to a fast, low-rolling resistance race tyre for competition. ➡ 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲: See how your tyre stacks up on rolling resistance here: https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/road-bike-reviews ✅ 𝗧𝘂𝗯𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸: Are you still using heavy butyl tubes?

We cover the pros and cons of all three, including tubeless. ✅ 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Get your PSI spot-on for your weight and tyre width to achieve that 'floating' ride quality that equals speed. ➡𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹: Dial in your perfect pressure: https://silca.cc/en-au/pages/pro-tire-pressure-calculator?srsltid=AfmBOorRjl9loyavPzZ2kc5cNxNEq6bA Read our latest blog for the full breakdown, including the simple rim sizing formula and why you should consider buying one size smaller than you think!
