I have a set of Clement Strada lgg tires that I've ridden for about 1500 miles.
Zero flats, fast riding (I'm not a super fast rider but I never felt the tires
were slowing me down at all). They show a tiny bit of wear, but certainly have
a lot of tread to go. Overall, I'd definitely recommend t
I’ve never had more than 75psi in my Chinook Passes, but I only weigh 140
pounds. I have the extra light version, and am a little over 1000 miles in,
with no flats. I do find them noticeably nicer riding than the 28mm non-belted
Paselas they replaced, but not necessarily dramatically so. I chalk
And standard casings. Always. I would never extra leger. Scary!

I rode A23 rims with the Chinooks. Roads only. No curb hopping.

I recently bought a pair of the 700x28c Vittoria Corsa G+ for my new Roadeo. I
haven’t built up the new Roadeo yet, but have been riding the tires on my Ram.
They look and feel great. I highly recommend them.

On second thought, maybe my pinch flats were nothing but bad luck, or
sample variation in tires. My Compass 38's were flat-prone, as are the
28's, but my 35's are not (all are EL casing). Also, I now think at least
one of my pinch flats may have been due to a slow leak that lowered psi to

I must be doing something wrong, because I'm also 175lb, and pinch flats
start happening at 80-85 psi! Maybe it's my narrow Mavic Open Pro rims;
been thinking that wider rims might make a difference. I also ride a lot
of rough pavement, some gravel, and occasionally hop up curbs. Before the

And no pinch flats.

Not my experience.
700 x 28 Chinooks at 60psi front and rear was plenty supple for me when I had
them. I was 175lb at the time.

Doug said "I was told that you really start to notice the difference with

I have to agree with the above. My Compass 28's have to be pumped to near
90psi to avoid pinch flats, and at this pressure I don't feel much
suppleness so there's little to distinguish them from
I have ridden Panaracer Paselas now for about 16 years and love them. They
have been affordable, durable, not at all flat-prone, and are responsive
and comfortable enough for me to be happy with them on two AIDS/LifeCycle

Conti 4000. On my 23 mm rims the 28 mm Conti tires measure close to 30 mm
inflated to 80psi. I like that they have a nice minimal tread and that
means to some degree you can see the wear happening. Tire are cushy, wear
well, and do not seem at all flat prone. Michelin slick 28 Endurance Pros

Passellas aren’t the bargain they used to be during the skinny tire heyday.
There’s many better alternatives these days, as has been mentioned in previous
posts.
Gravel King, Compass, Conti GP4000, Veloflex, Soma SV, are all great choices.

I second the view for Paselas. At 28mm and 65 pounds rear, 60 front, they're
really comfortable.

The Vittoria Corsa G+ is my next 28c purchase. Every review I’ve read and heard
from others is that they are almost indistinguishable from Compass tires in
ride quality. Of course they are much cheaper. I was told that you really start
to notice the difference with Compass at 32 and above.

Conti Sport Contacts - affordable and check most of those boxes

I have been intrigued by the Gravel Kings for a while now, both for the
nice price and the design.
Sounds like they could hold a flame to the Compass/GB offerings, but I will
start a new thread for reviews on that.
So far, looks like I will hopefully try those or the 28 GB Cerfs

I just grabbed a pair of 28mm Gravel King Slicks during the eBay discount
day. Need to downsize my Ram's tires to accommodate the winter fender
situation.
They have some flat protection. Check out the Vittoria Corsa G offerings
for something more dainty.
