Hi everyone,

I'm riding a Rose Backroad AL, specifically the previous generation of the current Backroad AL (the model before the latest redesign).

I'd like to make it more road-focused for fast rides, so I'm looking for recommendations for fast road tires that work well on the stock wheels.

My main goal is to improve speed and road performance, but I don't want to buy a new wheelset. I'd prefer to keep the original wheels if possible.

So I have a few questions:

• Which road tires would you recommend?
• What tire width would you go for (30 mm, 32 mm, 35 mm, etc.)?
• Are there any tires that roll exceptionally fast while still working well with the stock rims?
• Has anyone here done the same conversion on a previous-generation Backroad AL?

I'd love to hear what setups you're running and whether you think it's worth switching to road tires without changing the wheels.

Thanks in advance! 🚴
