They certainly do make nice tires...but I've found the 26 X 1.5'' mclure pass not nearly as durable as the Paselas w Tourguard and kevlar bead (3 flats last summer)... they replaced. I know you have a 650B wheel. Durability is something you may want to consider...the 650B Paselas I have on my new mixte look like they'll be good ..but there are other good durable choices as well. What were you using before?
