I can only speak to the Pasela's but I am running 700x35c wire beads with Tour Guard and I love them. I have run them at 85 psi and at less than 60 and they run fine either way. I ride on alot of rough pavement in West Seattle and into downtown and they really smooth things out.
I too found a great deal just be sure that you look carefully to see if you are getting a version with Tour Guard (ie their flat protection "kevlar") or no Tour Guard. I also love the skinwall look and Pasela's give you that option or just plain black Ryan On Jan 6, 7:40 am, bicitourist <ejro...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone, The time has come to get some tires for my new ride.
