Switching from 23mm to 25mm tires on road bike

Post by rstrom »

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what the affect of switching from a 23mm tire to a 25mm tire will have on the profile. Of course I'll have to change the tire diameter in the profile but how much will change otherwise?

I've just recently completed a calibration ride and then coast downs (I think 7 of them) and I can't say that I'm looking forward to going through the process again.

So I'm wondering how much the change will have on the end results and whether or not it's going to make a big difference if I don't head straight out and perform a new calibration test with coast downs.

I'm currently using Bontrager R3 23mm tubeless road tires (running them tubeless with sealant) and would be switching to the same tire but a 25mm width (this would also be run tubeless with sealant).

Anyone have any feedback and/or experience with this?

Thanks,

Robert

Attached is the last calibration ride that I did.
