@Shaun_U
Can anyone help please regards the sourcing of traditional black / amber wall 27 x 1 tyres or ones that are slightly narrower at a reasonable price?
Most of my older steel racer bikes are fitted with narrow 700's but one has 27's with 27 x 1.25 (or one and a quarter) tyres. These look to me clumsily wide and remind me of my mum's old Raleigh - Grundon - Sludgeworth sit and up and beg type bike with the chunky old tyres. These are obviously the most widely available size but I wondered if slimmer sized 27's are available anywhere.
With thanks
Shaun
