I am not obsessed with speed but, as I mentioned in my previous quote, I am obsessed with versatility! one day can take me over paved MUPs, dirt roads, trails, grass, single track, it all depends on what mood my kids are in when I get off work! They have beach cruisers and BMX bikes they ride EVERYWHERE!
I think you'll like them. I put them on my hybrid bike (43s) about 1,500 miles back and have been very pleased. They are comfortable on all surfaces and seem to be wearing very well. They do make a bit of a hum on very smooth roads but much of this has abated with wear (which is slight). The tread does through up small stuff, as others have mentioned. When it hits the downtube it makes a pinging noise that bugged the heck out of me until I figured out what it was. It's not significant enough to worry about paint damage, etc.
