I notice that, but not really sure if it's a good sign or not. They are a nice for a vintage ride, but I look elsewhere for a go fast experience. They are great for a slightly wider tire on an all purpose bike though. My fender equipped bikes all ride on Paselas.

I find that the wire bead ones are a little "large", compared to other tires. I've actually blown some off beaded rims due to overinflation at what would be conservative pressures for some other tires. Oddly enough, on straight walled rims with reasonable pressures they hang on better than most others I've tried. Go figure...
