I wasn't going to let that slide.

For mostly road travel I like the high psi Kenda Kwest 20"X1.5" which roll well (good rubber compound and 60 tpi casing). I've run mine anywhere from 60psi to 95psi (the 451 equivalent having a very wide working pressure range of 35-100 psi) to suit road conditions and they have performed great.

I also like Schwalbe Marathon GreenGuards... 20"X1.5", 55-100 psi range, 67 tpi casing with green guard puncture protection and reflective sidewall.

For wider balloon type tires that are good on the street but really great on cobblestones and gravel I liked Maxxis Hookworms. I have yet to try the Maxxis Torch but the specs make it seem like it would be awesome (except in the puncture protection department).
