Thanks for posting this and the link to your blog. Good stuff!! I've been contemplating a new set of tires and the Barlow Pass has been one of the top contenders, along with the JB greens. I'm currently running 40mm Duremes and they are complete adequate when the wind is not blowing gale force but living in Oklahoma, that's a rare occassion. I've got a set of 32mm Vittoria Hypers that are really nice but I'm interested in the grippiness of the Barlow Pass and the cushiness of the JB's. Do you have any experience with the Hypers and if so, how do they compare to the BP and JB tires? It sounds like you would recommended the JB's over the BP's.
