    I've used Swissstops black, too, I think (I don't know; they start to blend together). They should suffice with aluminum rims. I thought the yellows were for carbon rims.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    A good thing about Schwalbe tires is they tend to run a tad narrower than what is printed on the side, so hopefully they will fit. Of course in my world a 700 x 28 is a skinny tire ~ I am currently on Grand Bois Hetre's 650b X 42 - a super smooth ride.
