I have 700x38 Panaracer Paselas on my Rosco, in the non-tourguard version. A new pair go for about $50. I have the same tire in 32 on an RBT and had 1.75s on a Trek 950 before swapping out to Big Bens out of boredom. Most of my 14 mile daily roundtrip commute is on bike paths and city streets, and I can't remember the last time I got a flat with plain old Paselas. If I were going to ride a lot on road shoulders I'd probably look to a Schwalbe Marathon or the like. Besides the Barlow Pass, I'm interested in the 700x40 Clement Xplors.
