Well......ok......you probably could

Ever since Eddy Merckx (I think it was Eddy) started drilling holes all over his "mountain stage"
bike, there's been this big thing about lighter is better. Then the triathletes came along and took it to
the rediculous, so, we have this big hype about lighter being better, especially on a wheel.

In the "road" forum, all us weight weenies get sucked in to buying light everything, especially tyres,
SO.........those tyres ain't gunna be very light.

If you're not concerned about weight, you could either try the airless tyres, ore even
get some chunky cyclocross tyres
