Justin,

Marathon Supremes would be my personal rec. after trying them on my
SimpleOne. The 42-622/700x40C model left room for fenders when mounted
on Open Pros - though I never did install fenders with them. They're
495g each, but designed to be as little tank-y as a Schwalbe tire that
will last forever can be.

I'm on Jack Brown Greens day to day, and there is absolutely nothing
to complain about, but if you like cush, they might not get you all
the way there.

This is an old saw for me, but I think there is a gap in the tire
market right now where a light, fat, and cheap(ish) 622mm/700C slick
road tire should be. My 650B life tells me there is a different
balance that the various designers and manufacturers can strike in
622mm/700C along those three dimensions, accepting the tire isn't
going to last forever or be flat proof.

Some people say Schwalbe Kojacks fill that gap, so you may want to
check them out, but they only go up to 35mm.

Good luck. Changing tires is fun.

Cheers,

Colin
