I'm running the 38 mm version on my single speed and really like them. I
haven't weighed them, but the sidewall says 270 g. They changed the feel of
the bike in a good way.

Sorry I get the Quasi-Moto knobby and the Pari-Moto slick mixed up sometimes.
Yes, I did like the Quasi Moto’s. They seemed a bit undersized and the knobs
wore quickly, but again for a MTB tire they didn’t seem squirmy or loud on
pavement and were comfortable. I had one pinch flat, but I was
I love compass tires too. I run my switchbacks 49s at 28 psi front and 32
psi rear and is a magic carpet.
I also have Barlow Pass 38s regular casing on my low trail Modified Salsa
Cassaroll
That I run at 50 and 28s that I run at 80 on my vintage Paramount.

I have not tried the Pari Motos but I believe they were originally designed as
a thin and light “event” tire. I think Panaracer may have beefed them up a bit
over the years. I think Jan Heine mentioned something about this. They now
appear to be very similar to the Gravel Kings sharing the sa
I have Compass EL Switchback Hill 48x650b on my Bombadil with fenders. I
scored a set of Panaracer Pacenti Quasimoto 2.0x27.5 that I thought might
use for some planned bike packing adventures. Does anyone have any
experience with this tire?

I have also been very impressed with the ride quality of Bruce Gordon Rock and
Roads. They have a pretty aggressive tread, but roll decent on pavement with
just a faint hum and seem to be almost as supple as the Compass regular
casings. I do have them set up tubeless and am running a low 30psi
Excel Sports has both the regular Panaracer Gravel King and the Gravel King SK
in all black or tan wall on sale for $32. they are Tubeless compatible. That
price is hard to beat and I plan on trying a set of the 38 SK’s mounted
tubeless on my CX bike for gravel rides. It seems that it is hard
Compass makes a 42. Compass tires are a bit wider than they are tall. Other
tire makers apparently make relatively taller tires. Bottom line is you can
only go by the number so far. Somewhere Jan Heine describes how to measure. A
quick google searc didn’t find it bit I know it’s out there. Obvio
Patrick I have been riding my 38mm Compass Barlow Pass tires for a month or so
on my singlespeed on various textures of road and I love them!

I've only used the 700C X 60 Big Ones tubeless, but I think that the G One
is the current name for the same or a very similar tire -- ie supple,
plump, light; if so, I would guess that the 40 mm Big One is close to what
you want. I can't say enough good things about the 60 mm Big One run
tubeless;
That’s an idea!

There ya go! All set! Grin. My Quickbeam has Compass Steilacooms (38 mm), the
knobbie sisters to the Barlows, and I ride them on all kinds of stuff,
including rocky, rooty singletrack.
With abandon,

It’s my Fredward(Handsome)singlespeed and I know it can take 40 without fenders
and will take fenders with the Compass Barlow Pass so it’s pretty versatile to
just use the Compass tires! I do love the Barlow’s!

Oh, and a simple way to test if a tire will fit is to use a compass to draw a
44 mm circle on an index card or cardstock, mark where your rim ends on your
frame (2 spots rear, one front), remove your wheel(s) and hold the circle there
to see what clearence you have.
Which bike you riding? Do yo
Thanks Patrick!

Carla, which is more important, plush or 40mm? In my experience, Barlow Pass
38mm are at lest as plush as Schwalbe 2.1” Liteskin Thunderburts, though the
ride characteristics vary because of the different width). There is the 44mm
Snowqualmie by Compass. But if plush is your delight, I’d stick w
What would be a good choice for a 40mm tire comparable to a Compass tire? I can
get a Compass Barlow 38mm pI would like it to be a bit larger if a good choice
is available. They would be for road and light gravel.
