• Id be interested to know how you get on with those tyres, they look like the panaracers but half the price

  • We had some Road Cruiser at work, the thread pattern is pretty simple compare to the Panaracers, and they're a tad heavier too, however they appear to be tougher.

    The folding Panaracer come in 37mm (realistically 35mm) at a modest 440g.

    The very best (and most comfortable) 700c tyres I've tried is the new Compass Barlow Pass, it's 38mm* and the lightweight one (the sidewall is thinner) is 327g.

    The normal one is 380g.

    *high quality tyres stretch more, so at first, it's 35mm, then after several weeks, it stretch to 38mm.

    Didn't know that was an option... didn't find it when I looked... Next set then...

    Re. Compass Barlow Pass... what did I say about obscure US sites? They look good though...

    Anyway, once I've taken nice pictures of the bike I won't restrict anymore to gumwalls...
