Anyone out there with the new 26 Derby's?
What's your thoughts?
Grip levels improved?
Less roll of the tyre as it has a wider Base to support it?
Lower pressures due to the increase volume?
Finding any down sides?
Thx

No one??
Surely it's the "next big thing" so have to be people on here with them.

I've not used them as a 26", but I have used them.

No noticeable grip improvements, couldn't run lower pressures either. Ended up cracking them like every other carbon wheel I've used.

Back on a thinner aluminium rim (of similar weight) and I've not turned into a squid who can't ride a bike because my rims don't have a 30mm+ ID.
