    Im looking at getting some slick road of CX tyres for my Cube LTD Pro 29er. will i face any issues putting some 700cx32 tres on changeing nothing else? this is just so i can get some good road miles done as im planning on touring a little this summer, but im lacking funds of any kind. The cube is by no means slow, already with rapid robs on, but will a thin slick tyre help me out?

    Was wondering the same myself (as a commuting experiment for my ti456), suspect that the weight of the 32 might slow things down a bit so was considering 25s or 28s.

    A mate has tried 25s on a set of his wheels and said they’re tight but it is possible!

    Fitted 700 33 cx tyres to my stans gold wheels
    Was not to hard to get them on and worked a treat

    Will be way faster, and unless you have very wide rims you’ll be fine – but need narrower inner tubes.

    I raced Hit the North on 35c’s on my 29er.

    I put 37mm Conti Travel Contacts on my Scandal 29er last year for a 100k charity ride.
    Really fast tyre with the added bonus of knobbly bits on the side if you decide to go offroad (weather permitting of course 🙄 )

    I’ve run 35C maxxis Raze CX tyres on Stand Arch EX rims and they were great. Loads of volume for such a “narrow” tyre.

    Depends on the rim, but in general, yes it will be fine.
