FWIW, I've never bought into the whole wide tire thing either. On a standard road bike 700 x 23-25 mm tires are fastest thing there is, period, that's why the pros use em. They'd all be on 26 x 2.10's if they were faster, but they aren't. More comfortable, maybe, but definitely not faster. I can't believe people even bother arguing about stuff like this.
