What's an indoor riding season? Grin. I've ridden both JB's and Compass (Barlow Pass) on my QuickBeam, and the Compass tires (feather light) are an amazing joy to ride on pavement and dirt roads that aren't too loose. However, since I ride a lot of looser dirt and single track in combo with steep, I prefer my Clement's.
