Haven't found any reviews online about these tires. Curious to to hear feedback from actual user experience.

I have no experience with them, but am also curious to see if anyone has any feedback. 38c seems to be the sweet spot for my riding style.

Me too! I'm going to pull the trigger on the 42s this spring. Not really a review but here are some random Instagram comments on them.

I've been riding the EX version for a couple weeks now. They're great, but this coming from a lover of Marathon Supremes. I suppose the comparison must be made against the comparable Compass offerings, which i can't really afford (bought these new from my neighbor). Only one flat so far, but Brooklyn to Westchester County commuting is a good torture test for any tire, thus the Supreme love.

I just mounted the 42s on my daughter's upright, but she hasn't had a chance to ride it yet.  Except for the tread design, they seem to be clones of Compass ELs.

I got a set of 700x33s EX that I put on my Rawland Nordavinden and have put about a 100 miles on them.  All I can say is "cushy" or "plush" and they still feel quick.  Am quite happy thus far.
