Default tires?

"James Cagney" wrote in message

I spoke to an engineer at COnti - and he basically said, on a 20mm
piece of rubber, no tire will give you traction when it is wet.

Regardless of what they say, if it is wet, you are going down if you
push it - and yes, Lance went with the narrow front wheel.


So all tires are the same in terms of wet traction? Is that what you
and the engineer mean?
