The MS feels cushier and quicker but I haven't timed myself on them. The JB was my favorite 33 tire, though, until I tried the MS. I only got one flat on the JB's in many miles, but I have yet to flat the MS. Also, the little bit of inverted tread on the MS gave more bite off pavement than the JB's. Not a big difference, and the JB is a great tire, but the MS has become my preferred ride. jim m wc ca -- *“Heroism breaks its heart, and idealism its back, on the intransigence of the credulous and the mediocre, manipulated by the cynical and the corrupt.” C.
