No need for that...just assume for all intents and purposes that all other factors are the same...a controlled experiment.One bike with fat tires, another bike with skinny tires, both bikes exactly the same weight and component wise, you don't need to be a physicist to know after riding bikes for 40 years which one has more rolling resistance...
To continue this thread with a little different direction and some more fat tire questions...I just picked up a 74 Eldorado that has 16 " rims and wide / fat tires. I just picked the bike up today and left it at a shop and have not deep dived what I have yet - that comes later this week.But...In my other post or somewhere ... some one indicated that the CHP Eldos used 16" rear tires - and I think somebody said they were 5.10s - which would equate to something like a 130. Mu guess is that the police bikes got these rear tires because they were carrying more weight (radio, siren, guns & ammo, donuts etc.).For the time being... I am going to keep these rims but the tires are probably 30 years old. Does anybody have any experience with 16" fat tires on an Eldo? What current tire would work on this bike?
You should be able to find decent 16" tires, they are common on American bikes. Kenda makes some that seem to last forever.
