Smaller? Empty Smaller?

Quick question. I'm going to the darkside on my 1800C. I notice a good chunk have gone with the 205 size. I have a buddy that did it with a Valk and he said now that he's used to it he'd do it again but is thinking he might go a little smaller. His thought was a little narrower tire might carve more like a true MC tire.

Just wondering if anyone is running smaller after having a bigger tire on and if that is what they've experienced. Any noticable handling difference between sizes?

I started with a 205 and went with another one after the first wore out. Thought of going smaller but didn't think it would make any difference in handling. I'm using a Yokohama Avid and it handles great.

I'm from the "more rubber on the road" group. I'd rather have more than I need than not enough. But thats just me. Wink
