Will 25mm Conti Tubbies fit in my P5?

I'm tempted to order 25mm Continental Sprinter tubulars for training use (more comfort, smoother ride on bad roads). 22mm fits right in the rear. Wondering if a 25mm would fit. Maybe the 25mm is a little taller too?

Wheels are Hed Stigner and frame a 2014 P5 with Magura brakes.

Cheers !

Never heard of issues with 25mm on a P5. Mine doesn't gave magura brakes, but GP4000 in 25mm were no problem. Rear dropouts are adjustable and the fork had a lot of room

I have the same bike and brakes. For me, the GP4000s fit in the rear, but rubbed in the front. I used the 24 force and 25 zipp.

Same here - no go with 25 in front, rear ok.

25mm 4kII rubbed the downtube mounted to Zipp rims on my size 54 P5.

Rear wasn’t issue. Fork wasn’t issue. It was downtube.

You'll be fine, everyone here is talking about clinchers, but a 25mm tubular actually measures 25mm so there really shouldn't be any issues
