That's right. My experience with Schwalbe is that they run a little smaller than the nominal sizing. The Kojaks are designated as a 35, and on the Aksium rims, run almost exactly 32.
I have Paselas on my QB and they are nice for mixed road and trail, but for road use the JB's seem to corner better and feel smoother. I will post a report on the Schwalbes after the Roadeo arrives.
