I have a 2012 Cervelo R5, and was thinking I could put on some wider tires that would be a bit more comfortable and durable. Does anyone know how I can figure out how wide i could go with the tires?

buy a single 28mm first and test it out on the front wheel, if it doesnt fit, use it on the back wheel
