I've always liked my 26" 2" kojaks but they don't feel anywhere near as nice/lively/insert silly adjective as compass rat trap pass.

The compass are much more fragile though, and nowhere near 28/32mm.

Using 26" tyres for 'fast road riding' is kind of odd though - are you sure you're not meaning 650c or 650b?

Isen AllSeason can be used with either. I'd go for 650c and GP4000SIIs, assuming that Conti carry on making 650c tyres when they switch to GP5000.

Max size Conti do the 4000s in 650c is 23mm which is too narrow.

26" definitely seems to have more choice than 650c (which seems to have almost died out).

It's frustrating that the 3 small Isens don't take 650b as that with the new 28mm GP 5000 would be ideal!
