martin555 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Then why do road bikers use slick tyres even in the wet? Because they have less rolling resistance and make it much easier and faster to ride. Much like other slicks they lack grip in the wet too.

Yeah but the guy said that slicks get no grip in the wet, if this was the case then every time I (or road bikers) went through a puddle I'd slip and fall off (sarcasm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
