Experiences/data Vee Road Runner vs GP4/5k (or Pasela)
I am looking aubout for advice for a speedy tire for my trekking bike to get me home asap at night.
More precisely: Does anybody have data/experience with the Vee Road Runner (or Pasela or other equally affordable alternative) to hopefully match the GP4(/5)k. I am trying to find out if the Vee can indeed match the GP4k as is claimed in the review of road.cc. Rolling and puncture resistance, comfort, control?
Many thanks for your input!

Some models have a front section that you can remove and rotate to permit the dipped beam while mounted upside down.

There are a few other reviews out there so you're not just relying on road.cc's review. If they not listed on the bicycle rolling resistance website you probably won't find any other sources of hard data I'm afraid.
If you want more personal input, you could try asking on reddit forums as they get more traffic than this one!
Is there really nobody at all with any data or experience on these two tyres (in comparison with each other or with the GP5k or the like)?
This is the most useful site for the info you're looking for

Thanks but this site had no info on the Pasela nor on the Vee.
