They (Parigi Roubaix clinchers) do have a great ride /*but*/ first time installation is living hell, and they have a very short service life in my experience.

While I'm sure the Compass tires are great, I haven't tried them yet. I've been using the Challenge Paris Roubaix for several years and couldn't be happier. Their stated width is 27mm but they measure 29.5mm. I run them at 85psi rear and 80 psi front. I weigh 175lbs. On my Rambouillet I use the Gilles Berthoud carbon fiber fenders (yeah, I know, but they're just so pretty I couldn't resist) and I have plenty of clearance.

    It's a few notches up in price and in riding experience for smooth
    rolling plushness to try Compass. You'll either love them and have
    minimal issues with flats (many, myself included, have very few),
    or love them and have more flats than you are willing to put up
    with. I find it amazing how much more enjoyable any road is with
    these tires! For me, well worth the bump in price.
