Fine.
I've run 25's on my 2012 model just fine.

I'm on a TCR ADV sl 0 '13 and also have Shimano DA C50 wheelset '13. Shimano recommend 25mm for the C50 and yes it is a tight squeeze getting the back wheel on & off. 25mm will work, but I would suggest 28 wouldn't.
hope that helps

A friend had a few issues on a road race in the UK whilst running conti 25s. They were on a '12 tcr adv sl using zipp 303 firecrest clinchers the new wider wheels. He ended up with a small stone down the back of the seat tube and the tyre causing wheel to jam. Could have happened with 23's too I'm sure. Just bad luck I guess. Other that that and us younger folk calling them Granda tyres he seems to like them.
I think the answer actually depends on the wheels as 28's on narrower rims will probably work where as Zipp Firecrest 303/404 wheels probably not so much.Horacio wrote:Never tried 28's but I think they'll work.

Forgot to mention above, I have run 25's on 303FC's with no issue
