Do the Compass Extra Legers usually expand with use? I wonder if the new Elk Passes will expand by 5 mm or so. Half of me wants them to empuffen (great verb) to the full 32 mm; t'other half likes them just as they are, ~27.5 mm on quite narrow (13 mm inside) semi-aero rims. For me, 28 mm is an ideal gofast size -- it feels and looks wide, just as the 42 cm Maes Parallel feels wide and "square" after the B 135 only 40 mm at top of ramps and the 37 or 38 Compass M Parallels on the Rivs.
