    looked at Sheldon's site but am too tired to make sense of it :-/
    Rims are Mavic X717's if it makes any difference...

    Well I've currently got 26 x 1.5 Specialized Nimbus Armadillo fitted, but I am wondering whether Marathon Plus might roll a little better.
    Maybe even 26 x 1.35 rather than 26 x 1.5.

    The 650's I think wouldn't fit according to Uncle Sheldon, just wondered as they are cheap just now.
