Recently there was a string of messages regarding the loose fit of Pasela tires. I have ridden Paselas for years, and they seem to fit fine on Mavic rims. Other people chimed in and said they had problems like yours. CLASSIC CONTENT: IMO the Paselas are the best option for a classic tire look at a low cost. As for the grease on your hub, as long as the bearings are still in adjustment I wouldn't worrry about it.
