Tire Size Recommendations

Hi all,

I posted this on the hybrid forum, but they must not have the depth of knowledge or expertise that this group does. Question is, what size tire should I run on my stock 7.5 FX for road riding? I'm looking to cover up to 30 miles on very decent roads. Wondering if my 700x32s are slowing me down that much or if I am just wasting time/money if I downsize. Would a 700x28 make that much of a difference? There are a few sizable hills and I understand a fatter tire will slow you down while climbing. Thanks for any and all input in advance!

Adam
