The wider Compass tires are brand-new designs, not re-branded tires from other makers. They all feature a tread pattern designed for optimum cornering adhesion in dry and wet conditions, whereas the Hetre has a ribbed pattern that also is considerably thicker. Compared to the Pari-Moto, the Compass Loup Loup Pass has more tread in the middle, so it will last many times longer. The Extralight version also has a lighter, more supple casing than the Pari-Moto...
Basically, the Compass tires reflect everything we've learned in 8 years of tire testing. In the past, we've worked with other makers to get tires that offered more performance and comfort than what was available before, but we've now decided to develop our own, so we don't have to compromise in any way. Sorry for the typos on the web site - they are fixed now. There were a lot of pages to redesign!
