Does anyone still ride 23mm?

As you suggest, most people seem to be following the recent fad to use wider tyres. As a result there are some really good bargains to be had on 23mm tyres. I have used 23mm tyres for the last 25 years with no issues.

23mm tubeless at 90psi works for me.

Excellent price.
Tried pretty much all the tyres on offer for my road bike. In my opinion, these are the best compromise between speed and puncture protection. Like most people nowadays I run 25mm but I do use 23mm when they come up at bargain prices.

I’ve noticed a growing number of people by the roadside fitting new inner tubes to their road bikes. If V-Guard works, Schwalbe should do well with these tyres.
I have Schwalbe tyres with puncture guard level five on one of my bikes and so far I haven’t had a single puncture.

could this not just be due to the growing number of cyclists in general? more cyclists means more cyclists that could get punctures.

Good solid tyre I've ridden the last 18 months on these. Oh and I ride on 23mm.

This is frustrating. First the code stopped working, then they put the price up. I don't think they want to clear them.
