Re: [RBW] Re: 700 x 32 tire recommendation, please...
I had no flats for quite a while - over 1000 miles. Then one day I had two separate flats from glass on the ride home. I love the ride, and will get more of these...

I have about 1200 miles on the Cyprii on the Ram and have not had a flat. Probably just luck that will run out this weekend.

+1 on that. 1,000s and 1,000s of miles on my Paselas, including two flat-free PBPs (not all on the *same* Paselas … they *do* wear out eventually!) --Eric Norris [email protected] www.campyonly.com campyonlyguy.blogspot.com On Jan 31, 2013, at 2:13 PM, Steve Palincsar wrote: > On Thu, 2013-01-31 at 08:29 -0800, Ron Mc wrote: >> Jim, I don't think it's relative at all - there is no other clincher >> tire in the weight class with Paselas (and to me, Jack Browns count as >> Pasela with a Riv-specs) > > It's probably accurate to say there is no other tire in the > performance-per-dollar class with the Pasela.

Re: [RBW] Re: 700 x 32 tire recommendation, please...
I rode 559X32 mm Paselas for years and they are nice tires, but I found the following defects: 1. They are surprisingly sensitive to pressure compared to other tires I've used (currently very slightly wider Kojaks). Now this was on very narrow, 19 mm Sun M14A rims, but compared to Kojaks -- and Fatboys and City Slickers -- the sweet spot between harshness and bouncing seemed quite narrow. 2. The casings were fragile -- I would notice degradation in the sidewalls after just a few months and the tread would scrape off after a panic skid on the rear. 3. They seemed more prone to flats than other tires I've used. Still, properly inflated, a smooth and fast ride, and 240 grams at $25 or less ...
