Hi all, Is it just me, or do any of you feel the lower priced PASELA standard tires just feel so much nicer than the TourGuard versions (either wire or folding) ?? I tried the TG, but went back.

This thread had a fork about 27" gum walled tires ...and I think these Paselas are our only option right now - though I keep watching for Gran Bois to make a surprise !!

I just put a set on an 'as new' 83 Nishihki touring bike that I'm going to use to lure my 15 year old nephew into some distance touring ! (also just mounted a new set of MKS pedal cages that just arrived from VO !!) http://www-hsc.usc.edu/~rpinder/nishikitom.html
