Its still has a stock tires and wondering how it will ride with a better tires. I ordered one and should get it by tomorrow or Saturday.
Any suggestions for tires will be great. Also looking for advise for a lightweight SPD pedal. Thanks.
I put some Schwalbe Ultremos on to race with - they felt so good that I pretty much just left them on for most of the season. You definitely pay more, but relative to what you'd pay for a carbon anything, I found it to be a huge upgrade. Plus you can get the Ultremos in a bunch of different colors to bling out your CAAD.
