As someone who rides at least down to freezing temps, it definitely feels like my very nice Conti MTB tires get substantially more sluggish and less efficient at colder temperatures. That is of course consistent with the general behavior of rubber materials. Have you done tire measurements at temps of 40F and below? Roughly what kind of changes have you observed?
Thanks,
