I still insist that Paselas are not true gumwalls. Gumwalls are the color of gum hoods. They have the same problems as gum hoods, so it's a good thing that they're not. These Specialized Nimbus tires are gumwalls. They're dried out and the sidewalls are brittle and beginning to come apart.

Death fork? Naaaah!!
Paselas are good tires and I have them in both 27x1" and 700x25c.
Not as nice, but much cheaper, are the CST gumwalls available from Niagara:

I've run these on a couple of everyday rides and used them on flippers. Same as Nashbar's in-house cheap tire.

If you're building up a really nice road frame and need a good tan sidewall tire, google "veloflex". They're handmade in Italy at the old Vittoria plant, and I got a pair a few years back. Gorgeous tires.

+1 Paselas are great.
+1 they're not gumwalls, they're tan skinwalls...but provide the C&V look most of us strive for.

Just bought a set of these Michelin Erilium 2 tires for cheap. They only come in 23c however, so no help for the OP. I haven't ridden them yet, but if the red strip matches your bike, they might be another option in a limited field.

I used to ride Michelin Bib Sport 25 which was a nice, long wearing gumwall. I can only get them in 27" these days but if you find them in NOS 700c they are great. There is a similar Wolber 700x25 but I have never used it.

I don't think most know the difference between gum wall and skin wall..... I think they are just looking for a tan sidewall with the vintage look.
