Neil,
I took Riv's advice from a Blug post a couple of years ago and bought
700x45 Smart Sams for my 56 orange canti-Sam. They've been wonderful,
bouncy fun on trails. Two things that surprised me: they are much more
supple than I expected and much quieter on the roads (only some expected
@Neil -- The 700x42 Cazaderos run under my Tektro 559's just fine on my
Sam. They ride nicely for knobbies and are enough for the offroading I do
(I don't like rooty, rocky MTB trails).
My thinking is the same as yours, even using Roman's photo as inspiration.
My 62cm Sam's a little offroady
You are right, Neil. The Compass nobbies wear faster than I’d like them to, but
they also grip spectacularly. I’m happy to pay to trade up for that. I have a
new pair of Barlows I’ll try once snow season passes (June), and compare which
I prefer for six months of the year. The knobbies are
I don't have a Sam, but that picture of Roman's bike definitely nudged me
toward getting the bronze Rosco Bubbe road last year. I currently run
700x42 Cazaderos and like them just fine. I also considered the Simworks
Homage and WTB Resolute (42) and the WTB Nano and Schwalbe Smart Sam (40).
So
Good stuff!
Deacon - I would love to try Jan's knobbies, but I think there is too much
pavement in my world for a high-end knobbie. Based on my experience with
Compass tires, they would wear too quickly.
I've always wanted to try Rock n Roads, but have always heard that they
wear quickly and
I meant Rock n' Road tires. lol.
I had Fatty Rumpkins on the bike before the Rock n' Roads and they handled
crushed limestone trails great too.
I found V-brakes powerful enough to not give me any issue braking on
trails, but in my experience hydraulic discs are on a whole 'nuther level

Back when I had my orange canti Sam H I initially set it up as a road bike
with Noodles, bar end shifters, and v-brakes and the bike really rode well.
It was a 650 b wheeled bike with Velocity Dyads and the Rivy freewheel
hubs. Pretty nice setup. I then changed it to do some trail riding by
