"Thanks. Unfortunately, they don't make a Speed between the 1.5/38mm and the 2.0/50mm. A 1.75/44-45 would max out my frame clearance and provide some more volume. If I could make my ultimate tire, I would have a 45mm G-One with Speed center knobs and Allround side knobs. That tire would take care of about 90 percent of my riding and really add a bit of control when I venture off the beaten path into pseudo-mtb territory. I may try to Resolute next to see how that fits the bill.

Just based on that Gran Fondo magazine test, it sounds like you're making smart choice. The Resolute sounds about as close to the ideal version of the Speed you describe as anything out there. Sounds if anything slightly faster than any Schwalbe that isn't Liteskin, although it does sound a little fragile. Prob comparable to the Liteskin in that regard.
