I'm not sure I understand what you mean. From your experience,
so making these equal, a MTB slick compared to w road slick... a skinnier road tire is both faster and more comfortable than a fatter, and equally smooth, MTB 26" tire. Is this because overall, larger diameter tires are both faster and more comfortable than a smaller diameter tire?
