Continental Avenues, marked 700x40 but 35mm on a MA3 rim. discontinued, but around. Replaced by Sport Contacts. The Avenues are sort of light, no tread, no magic anti flat RR increasing stuff. Andre Dugast makes 27mm tubies, available at Jintensha Studios. The Avenues are $14, the Dugast's are $140, yowsa. Avocet Cross II 38s, 445gram, 35mm real world, a bit noisy but corner well.
