Comparison Test: Are Wider Rims Better? We Try 4 Different Widths
Was chatting with someone who did this exact same test and had the opposite results. The narrower the rim the faster they went which makes far more sense to me
The wider the rim, the squarer the tyre becomes and increases the drag more.
Obviously it needs to be square enough that the edges dig in when leaned over.
I think it depends on what track you test it on whether you want rolling speed or traction etc
Looking at Bruni's bike set up, he runs narrow rims which would have had much more timed testing than Matt doing one test on one track

Looking at those pedals at the top, it's good that they no longer touch children.
