Bumping this thread...
Interested in knowing what the OP ended up purchasing.
ThermionicScott: Did you mount the Paselas last spring. Did they prove as fast as you thought they were going to be?
Has anyone any experience with the Compass tires?
The contenders are (they must be > 1.5" to fit my rims):
1. Panaracer Pasela either 1.5" or 1.75"
2. Compass 1.75"
3. Vittoria Randonneur Pro 1.5"
4. Schwalbe Marathon Racer 1.75"
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
