For all aspect, 18" was more comfortable, but a huge drawback in handling and performance.
19" were hard on the ride, but without any gain in handling.
20" are almost on-par on ride, but 10* better on handling.

I had the chance of experimenting all 3 in a matter of weeks, and I'm ready to sacrifice a little comfort for the gain in handling.

RFT are harsher on ride, caused by stiffer sidewalls obviously.
