With my new bike I'm rocking 32mm and loving it so much I'm contemplating shelling out for their 35mm model, just to see if it keeps getting better or 32mm was the peak goodness. I had personally applicable Strava data on routes I rode a lot with the 25mm and 28mm tires and then with the 32mm tires, and not only didn't see any drop in performance, but if anything, saw a slight gain. Since my frame and fork support these sizes, I won't ever go back.
I'm thinking about it, the new Defy can handle up to 35mm. So I could run 32mm GP5Ks that would prob measure out to 33-34mm and be good.
