I run those Paselas as 100 psi. 75 psi is too slow for me. Interestingly my average speeds on my All-Rounder are very close to my average speeds on my Ritchey road bike (700 x 25 Paselas, 115 psi). The A/R is at least 5 lbs heavier, probably 8 lbs (heavier saddle, generator light, front mini rack, bar bag, fenders) than the Ritchey which is my old race bike.
