I just ordered a multi-year stock of the Elk Pass. The Rat Trap Pass looks
particularly nice; wish it came in a 700C version.

The four new Compass tires are in stock now! They are the Rat Trap Pass
(26″ x 54 mm), Switchback Hill (650B x 48 mm), Bon Jon Pass (700C x 35 mm),
and Elk Pass (26″ x 1.25″).
The *Rat Trap Pass* (above) is the ultimate expression of our new Enduro
Allroad tires. With its 54 mm width, it is incredibly plush on rough
gravel, yet thanks to the smaller 26″ wheel size, it has the same
rotational inertia as a medium-width 700C tire, and thus handles like a
good road tire on pavement.

The Rat Trap Pass has already proven itself in this year’s
*Paris-Brest-Paris*, where it provided wonderful comfort and security for a
tandem team on the rough roads of Brittany.

At
48 mm wide, the *Switchback Hill* is our largest 650B (27.5″) tire yet. Named
after the first major climb in the *Oregon Outback* gravel race, the extra
floatation gives you more speed and security when the going gets really
rough. 30% of the *Oregon Outback* is on pavement, so we designed this tire
to roll as fast and grip as well as a good racing tire. With this tire, you
truly have the best of both worlds. The Switchback Hill also can transform
the performance of your 27.5″ mountain bike on gravel or paved roads.

The* Bon Jon Pass *is our Goldilocks tire: at 700C x 35 mm, it fits bikes
that have extra clearance around the Stampede Pass (32 mm), but not enough
space for a Barlow Pass (38mm).

Whether smooth gravel or rough pavement, the Bon Jon Pass will make your
bike fly!

The *Elk Pass *26″ x 1.25″ tires (32 mm-wide) are superlight tires
for bikes with 26″ wheels. If you are looking for the fastest, lightest 26″
tire ever made, this likely is it. Not only does it weigh just 178 g, but
it uses the Compass Extralight casing and our ultra-sticky tread rubber for
the ultimate in suppleness and cornering grip. It also is a great emergency
spare tire for those traveling off the beaten path with 26″ wheels. The Elk
Pass already has proven itself on challenging rides in the Cascade Mountains

Like most Compass tires, the new tires are available with “Standard”
casings and tan sidewalls, as well as with “Extralight” casings in a choice
of black or tan sidewalls. (The Elk Pass 26″ x 1.25″ is available only with
Extralight casing and tan sidewalls.)

In addition to the new tires, we've resupplied our existing offerings. This
means that favorites like the White Grand Bois Hetres, Black Extralight Compass
Chinook Pass 700C x 28, and more are back in stock. Click here

2015-08-28 Thread Pondero
Just ordered a pair of Rat Trap Pass tires for the Atlantis.  I think the 
clearance will be a bit tighter than I'd prefer at the chainstays, but will 
give them a go.  They could be ideal for the dry gravel roads I routinely ride. 
 They would have been great today, riding farther west than normal on rougher, 
sandier roads (but I managed fine with my Hilsen and Lierres).

I'm not telling anyone but you guys how much money I just spent on two bicycle 
tires.
