I'm using the 32mm Panaracer Gravelkings. I have not been happy with them, too many punctures including my first ever double flat. I've installed a set of Mr. Tuffy's and have been really surprised by their performance. The frame is a keeper. The Tange tubeset is legit, plenty of clearance for 32mm tires and fenders, and double rear eyelets. My only complaint is that the paint job is not very durable.

Very nice bike. I think that is the first Fog Cutter I've seen built-up and I like your component choices. Sorry to hear the paint is fragile but I like the color a lot.
