Wonder how they will compare to the schwable big ones that are roughly the same
size. Can't imagine they could be much lighter than those.

I'm just guessing like everybody else of course, but I can't imagine this
not fitting on the Atlantis or even Tim's Appaloosa. The Rat Trap Pass
comes in at quite a bit under the labeled size so, if the same hold true
here, it shouldn't even be close.

I've had Compass on three bikes and I can't imagine buying any other tire
(except maybe for a total city workhorse/grocery getter). This will fit on
the new Atlantis and other RIv bikes with the 2.2 / 55cm clearance?

I am a big believer in Compass tires now that I have spent some time with the
Barlow Pass on my Sam. I was initially really excited to see the 700x55 version
coming out but I now wonder if they will even fit my Appaloosa. I think the
Atlantis and Hunqapillar clearances are a little more
I kinda doubt his views have changed on what is optimal for his style of
riding, but I know that some folks on the internet have been asking for this
tire. Also, check out how many different 700c sizes are available. Maybe he
wants folks to be able to run the fattest supple rubber they can
I think it's simply that his market demands this sort of tire. And I think
that there is a rather big demand for fat, supple 29er tires; I predict
these will be best sellers.
I both agree and disagree with Jan's views on wheel size, tire width, and
handling, meaning that "optimum" in reference to
He certainly did say that at some point. I think that was even prior to the
700x44 came out. Maybe his views have changed.
Apart from Rivs and monstercross-type bikes, what else would these tires go
on? 29ers? Seems like a very niche-within-niche product.

I'm really excited about these new tires, but I thought Jan believed 700c
tires this wide were less than optimal. Has he said anything about changing
his view, or am I just completely confused and off base here?

I'll just have to ride them for a few thousand miles and see how they do

Well, it seems you do miss some things when you forgo social media. I'll be
interested when a description (and a photo! I wonder if it will seem as
pneumatic as the Rat Trap Pass?) appears on more retrograde platforms.
Jan mentioned a tire like this some time ago, but when I inquired late last
700 x 55 Compass tires?!?! Oh my Lord, heaven on earth!
Maybe 700 x 55mm Compass knobbies are in the works?
