I'd worry about the supple sidewalls rather than the tread.  My plan
is to use them for events or times when I want to maximize
performance, and use Hetres everyday.

All this being said, the old reliable CdlV is a great all-around tire,
and it will fit the Riv 650B bikes and most conversions no problem.

I wonder why Grand Bois backed off the 38mm Hetre.  It would have sold
well - long wear, very fast, comfortable ride, and the colors!
