What's the highest PSI those Speedmaxs can take, and is mounting them on the rim easy to do with the folding bead (and do you have the Comps or Pros)? I'm looking to order a pair from one of the shops in the area. C&O is a great path to ride, there's also some good unpaved stuff in Rose Park and Rock Creek Park. The Capitol Mall is fun to play on also.

Thanks in advance for answering my questions about the tires.
