I finally took my Pasela 32s off road for a little muddy night ride and I learned two things:

1.) 700x32 is enough for trails

2.) 45 lumens is not enough for night riding

With the exception of one very jarring root I never felt my 32s were too narrow for the mud but if I hadn't had a few rear lights to follow I would have crashed for sure.

Is it the Pasela Tour Guard? I just picked up a set of these a couple of days ago. I'd love to hear your impressions since I've been worried I have to baby them a bit in comparison with my 700x38 Marathons.

I don't baby mine at all. I have the 700x32 Tourguards with tan sidewalls. Iv'e ridden them over a year and had one pinch flat.
