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.
