I've taken to riding a full-suspension mountain bike all over vs my old road bike- the MTB is cheap and heavy like a tank but I like the cushyness. Anyway, I put new 26x2 slicks on there and at identical psi vs the old knobbies, I can now pull top gear all over the place where before top gear was pretty much not useable thus demonstrating how much tread block flexing contributes to r.r.
