Tire Size

Hello all,

I've been a long-time "reader" of these forums, but this is my first time registering for an actual account to post!

I just recently purchased a Kona Jake for my work commute. It came with a pair of tires sized 700 X 32. I am tempted to run thinner tires on it until the weather turns for the worse, to maybe ride a bit faster and make my transition from my non-commuting bike (KHS Flite 100) a bit smoother.

Is there a limit to the tire size I can run on the rims? The bike came stock with Alex Black Dragon rims. I have some extra 700 X 23 tires laying around, but intuition tells me those may be too small (they are the tire size I run on my Flite.)

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Luis
