Nice! A set of black Pari-Motos would go really well with that

I tried Pari Motos when they first came out. I was happy with the way
they rode but thought they wore out very, very quickly. I ended up with
one half-worn one I keep as a spare for touring. But not black. I
really dislike black tires.
For comparison:

(No pump that day; I was out picking up a pair of chainstays for a new
frame and wasn't sure if they'd foul and then knock the pump loose.
Pari-Motos on this thing because it's got fender spacing for Nokian
A10s and Confreries look a little undersized under fenders this large.)

I get a 42mm Hetre up to 50 psi with 100 strokes of a Zefal
HPX. 50 psi
is my normal operating pressure with that tire.
Want to trade pumps?
Not a chance. Here's my HPX 4.
It didn't come that way. It took a few hours with varying grades
of sandpaper and steel wool and aluminum polish to get it that
way: sweat equity.
