Looking at buying a set of HDs for Morzine but was wondering if its worth paying double for the pace/trail star compound over the ORC? I'm assuming the ORCs will inflate fine tubeless on flow exs too?

Good for 'goblin' up the trails (gets coat and leaves).

Before I leave, pacestar rear, trailstar front. The german online retailers are best priced, can get them for around 36 euro each plus postage. The cheap compound is horrible.
