Fair enough. I've heard that a lot. I've just heard some about variable build quality and issues with mounting certain tires. Unfortunately, one of those Panaracer Paselas was a tire I'd been planning on using. Don't know if that's a rim issue or a tire issue or just some weird combination, but that had been making me a bit leery, but I suppose so many people over so many years can't be all wrong. I've seen some people say you should run a very thin tape with them. Is that really necessary, or can I just go with the standard velox stuff?
