    I've been setting PRs on Strava all over the place so I would say that the 27.5plus rolls faster than my old 26er, at least.

    Better grip, better braking, faster corner speed. What tyre pressures are you running?
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    About 17-18 at the moment, front and rear. Higher is better for the amount of mixed k's I do. I need to experiment a bit more

    Ok. I run mine a bit softer but I am pretty scrawny and not worried to much about how fast they roll. Plenty of rooty, rocky and muddy country where I ride.
