    OK, I was bored.

    https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AudBeasJxalrdHJ4ZFZBakxiSW1uaUlCcDVfNk1uWXc&hl=en&authkey=CI-Aizw

    I tried to include everything from Continental, Panaracer, Schwalbe and Vittoria, except tyres with excessive tread.

    Bolded entries are the lightest for that claimed width, but this is probably distorted by cheating (e.g. my Ultremo 28s are nowhere near 28mm wide).

    Feel free to add more. Maybe comment if you have different measured weights or widths, but this isn't intended to be a review database.

    Some of this is probably on weightweenies, but the intention is to cover current offerings only.

    Now add drag coefficients and rolling resistances. Go on.

    Updated with the scientifically accurate "Dirk scale of smooth riding":

    1.0 - 3.0 = Fairly rough, prepare to get knocked about a bit.

    3.0 - 6.0 = Not bad, a bit dead but ok for a weekend ride.

    6.0 - 9.0 = Smooth and easy, could ride on for days.

    9.0 - 10.0 = Dirk. Yes, I am this good, no rubber can compete.

    Double Entendre? Yes, I'll have one please.
