If she weighs around 150 lbs or less, I'd say get the cypres. I'm a hair under 160 and switch between the hetre and cypres fairly often - at my weight, both tires feel decadent. in other words, saying that the hetre is more comfortable than the cypres ain't saying much, esp. if the majority of riding is being done on paved roads. On my rando bike, I save the cypres for brevets and ride the hetre for everything else (although i did do a 350k and 400k on the hetre this year - it performed better than I thought, but the cypres is still my favorite when speed is a factor). Something else to consider - the hetre has a much longer life than the cypres. If she starts riding more than just mostly weekends, you might want to go with the hetre. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
