I hate the 42mm's Specialized Trigger Sport tires that came with the bike for riding on pavement.

Hate them.

They sound like a hurricane and have the rolling resistance of dragging a cinder block behind me. (Pretty decent on hard pack gravel and crushed limestone and stuff like that though)

They are a comfortable ride though, absorbing any bumps in the road nicely. Just slowly.

The 39mm Michelin Protek were a great speedy ride. But I wore those down to the liner pretty quick. Like a few hundred miles quick. Nice ride but that wear was ridiculous.
