Since you haven't used the tires in question . . .
And yeah, I'd guess that the Conti engineers and production managers and bean counters are a whole lot less concerned about legacy sizes. It's a corporation. I can't remember ever seeing a 27" tire test, period. Or even a review other than on Amazon.
