I have the plain black wall 35mm Paselas with wire bead and they are definitely easier to get up to speed on than my plain Jane 700x47 (41 actual) Marathons......but the Marathons are awesome when it comes to varied terrain and road shoulder junk. I even hit what appeared to be the remains of a paint scraper. It "wanged" off the tire and out to the side with no damage to the sidewall. I once hit a sharp, walnut sized rock with a Pasela and it tore at the sidewall and the tire was ruined. I run the Marathon pressures to around 60-70 psi which is max for this tire but I weigh in at a semi healthy 268 lbs. I hate fixing flats and I must have a reliable tire for commuting so I say, "go wide with pride" !
