WOW, I'm impressed. On the local Rail to Trail, gravel surface, the best I've been able to post is 13.5 using a Nishiki MTB with suspension fork and 26X2.00 tires, (the tires are comfort tires with only a light tread, not MTB tires). Guess I'm going to have to pull out the 720 this weekend and see what I can do with 700X38's on a hybrid.
