Currently I use the (old) Pasela TG (26 x 1.75) and love them. Very fast rolling for such a tyre, very comfortable and in a year and a half commuting in London and cycling down to Cornwall (fully loaded) I've not had one flat. I had better go and *touch wood* now of course. Anyway, after something possibly a little more rugged for a one year trip. He told me that he'd always been given to understand that Panasonic made all their own tyres in their own factory in Japan, and didn't make tyres for anyone else. Under NAFTA, items that are deemed manufactured in the US (and Mexico) are duty free. A duty (percentage) may be charged if the item is manufactured in another country. This is a test of the folding version of the Pasela PT (ProTite) in the 38-622 (700x38c) size which happens to be the most "high-end" version of this tire. The PT or ProTite part of the name indicates an extra layer of Panaracer ProTite anti-puncture material has been applied under the tread section of the tire. The casing is made of "400D Light Extra Cord" fabric that gives this tire the suppleness and responsiveness it's known for. Sizes: 700 x 23c / 700 x 25c / 700 x 28c / 700 x 32c / 700 x 35c / 700 x 38c / 26 x 1.75 / 27 x 1.0 / 27 x 1-1/4 / 27.5 x 1.75 / 27 x 1-1/8

Ive got my hands on the new The Panaracer Tour Guard Plus 700x32. (made by Panasonic, didnt know that!)

Each item entering Canada will be charged GST (General Sales Tax) and PST (Provincial Sales Tax - varies by province) based on the declared value. Running them at 100-105psi seemed their sweetspot, although in similar conditions a more contemporary compound encouraged me to push things that bit harder. At 256g apiece, our 25mm tyres were svelte enough for training and fast commutes. Noting their operating pressures of 85-115psi, I initially set them up on my fixed gear time trial bike to see how they'd deliver at the higher pressures. Even at their maximum, the ride never felt harsh. NOTE: As of 2021, we've improved the puncture resistance tests and now provide 'Total Puncture Score' as the main puncture resistance indicator.

A Ultra-strong reinforcing additive that delivers high strength puncture resistance is applied to the tread section. Enhances the structural strength of the casing to increase puncture resistance. Fast commutes incorporating stop-go town centre sections with the usual hazards didn't tax them, and their sprightly persona kept things nimble and the right side of exciting.

The Continental Grand Prix Urban is a new addition to the Continental "Grand Prix" range of bicycle tires. Having "Grand Prix" in the name is promising by itself as Continental usually reserves this name for their best-performing road bike tires. Even though the Grand Prix Urban comes very close to being a road bike tire on paper, we've classified this tire as a "Touring/E-Bike" tire and will compare it to other tires in the same class. Everyone seems to endorse Supremes apart from the fact that it might suffer from side wall cuts as well. Does anyone have experience with both pacelas and ribmos? Is the Ribmo harsher. It surely isn't much heavier than same size panaracer. I had used Schwalbe matahon pluses and they are really terrible in terms of ride quality.

I'm sad to come to this, but no more Paselas of any size for me............I have a pair of new 23mm Paselas to go on for the coming summer, but I shall keep a weather eye on them and I will not buy Paselas again. The Pasela PT is the ideal touring and commuting tyre. An all-condition tread pattern along with sizes for both road and MTB wheels makes this one of the most versatile tyres on the market. The Panaracer Pasela is a touring bike tire that has been around for as long as we can remember. The Pasela is popular as a "supple tire" tire with the added benefit of good worldwide availability and decent pricing. Although we don't test "suppleness" in our lab, we're very curious about how the Pasela compares to the competition in our tests. Puncture Force Blunt Needle: The Blunt needle has a flat tip and won't split the casing wires. To puncture the tire, the blunt needle has to cut the casing wires.

The bike in question is to be used for commuting (almost always on tarmac and occasionally on thames path) and long distance touring with 4 loaded panniers. Puncture Force Sharp Needle: Pre-2021, this score was known as 'Puncture Resistance'. On some tires with weakly bonded casing wires, the sharp needle can split the casing wires resulting in a lower score.
