Panaracer Extreme Jet Tubular review
The Panaracer Extreme Jet Tubular is worth 10 out of 10 in the dry but realistically only seven due to the wet grip and high cost.

First things first – the Panaracer Extreme Jet Tubular is an expensive tubular tyre.
With that out of the way it’s worth considering what it’s designed for. As a sponsor of Alessandro Petacchi’s former team, Milram, the Japanese tyre manufacturer put all its tyre technology into the Jet. It has used a dual compound; normally I’m not a fan of dual compound tyres but the combination of ZSG Natural in the centre and grippier ZSG Ultima works well and provides a good dry weather ride.
