Alan, I've run the Cazaderos, albeit in a 700x50 blend, and absolutely love them. Durable, but roll better than they have any right to considering the knobs. Surprisingly little road noise, and they're great on dirt or gravel.
I've also been very happy with my WTB Horizons. They're not as supple as the Compass offerings, but not having to change a flat every 15 feet, which has been my experience with my Compass Snoqualmie Pass, makes up for the extra bumps. I have no experience with the Rock 'n Roads, but I have a friend who has been running the same pair year round on his Surly Straggler in all conditions. He loves them. They've been durable and handle all conditions very well. Good luck, Brett On Monday, November 19, 2018 at 6:36:39 AM UTC-8, Alan H wrote: > > Looking for some input from folks that may have experience with these > different tires.
