As funny as the post above is (the 55 lb blue chopper bike that an extremely disabled man can apparently ride at 112 MPH), yes, anything with 700c wheels will typically be faster. I find the sweet spot for 700c tires are 700c 35's. They feel as quick as road tires, but have enough give for day to day use, and hopping the odd curb.
