Recommend a 650B tire
The Panaracer Pasela 650Bx42 rear tire on my Lejeune has become lumpy and no longer spins without rubbing the chainstays, so I am shopping for a replacement. I am over Pasela's at this point: I have used them in a variety of sizes for years, but I have had bad luck with the 650Bx42's. A non-lumpy 42mm tire would work, any recommendations? I guess I could go to a slightly smaller size if necessary. Does anybody make a smooth-tread 40mm tire these days?
