Tire Test: Specialized Roubaix Road tubeless 23/25

OMG mounting this tire onto a Pacenti PL-23 18-622 rim with a single layer of Stan’s tape was a real bitch. 

Mounted and aired up to 100 psi with a floor pump, they measure 24.5mm wide, a little narrower than I thought they would be. #disappointed. The tires did not give me that harrowing POP that I usually get, so despite soaping the tire before inflating, I’m not super certain. 

At $90/ea., we’ll see how they ride when my other tire gets here in a few days.
