Were you riding the Jack Brown greens? I had the Compass Stampede Pass EL's on briefly on my RB-T, but didn't really have a chance to try them out as I quickly swapped them for the bigger Barlow Passes when I found out they would fit. IFRC, the Stampede Pass tires only measured out to only about 30mm on the Mavic MA-2 rims. They seemed noticeably skinnier than the Jack Browns. I would think the Jack Brown greens and Compass standard casing tires would be pretty comparable. I run the Baby Shoe Pass EL's on my Hillborne and love the ride. My new Roadeo has Roly-Poly's (28.5 with my calipers on Velocity Aerohead) and I want to fit a wider 32-35 tire to handle an occassional gravel road. I am curious as to how the new Compass Bon Jon Passes would work on the Rodeo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
