Mine are 36.6mm after a couple days of just sitting with air. The front is on an A23 and rear on a Synergy. I took them out today for the first ride after getting the new, bigger fenders (zeppelin 52s) on last night. I like the feel of the bike with these, though I've changed up the Hilsen quite a bit in switching from the Cypres to the Barlows. No more front rack or front load of any kind. It now feels so damn light I could do wheelies all day :)
Back to the tires - I want to take them on a long ride before I give any kind of verdict, but they felt a bit firmer than the Hetre Extra Legers on my other current ride, although I'm going to chalk that up to the super firm Brooks Pro saddle on this (other bike is a soft S-A). They are pumped at 45 rear, 35 front (I weigh about 160). I may drop the pressure a tad - I'm putting the Hetres around 40 rear and 30 front for comparison. These are some light tires! They felt much lighter in the bag than my Hetres, and they roll just as well, if not faster. I've had them on a half-mile of dirt/gravel path on the commute, and they gripped as well as any of the low pressure not-much-tread tires I've tried. The real test there is to take them at speed down hill on gravel. Perhaps next weekend...
