What 700x25 RoadTubeless tyre for my road bike?

Riding a folding sofa

Today I fitted a very 'comfortable' saddle to my folding Dahon MUP8.
This was upon my wife's request due to my current saddle not being the correct size for her. This was the only other saddle I had available...

During a quick test ride to the high street to fetch some bike parts, it felt like riding a folding sofa!



The ride was way too soft, and the bike felt like wiggling side to side from underneath me. It also made the pedal strokes feel a lot less efficient, bobbing up and down with each power stroke.


The event confirmed to me how much difference a good saddle makes to the riding experience, as much as a good set of tyres makes to the handling.
