  • Ladies and gentlemen, I have been doing what I like to call "internet shopping"....

  • I suspect I might regret buying the discounted 23c Gravelkings and wish I'd paid about £2 more and got 26c. So, provided there's enough clearance when the frame arrives, let's just assume they're already for sale. They smell great though. Kwalidy rubbah.

  • you bought GKs on a fixie skidder?

    I will hold a vigil for you

  • Actually, right after I typed that out I thought, 'why don't I just send them back?!'

    And so, I have done.

    And you are free to make suggestions about awful tyres I can replace them with. Thickslick etc.

  • ^ sorry you dont deserve that.

    Dunno man, pasela or something?!

  • I think probably RIBMOs. Or, potentially just 26c Gravelkings as stated earlier.

  • That's quite some shopping list! I've used GK's on my fixed as I had them lying around but wouldn't by choice. I generally like them on geared bikes but they're too soft and not durable enough for fixed IMO.

    Link to where you got the hubs from?

  • Gatorskin Hardshells, or hand in your fixie card on the way out!

  • Gravelkings on a skidder?!? 😱

  • I did not expect this to cause so much drama, haha! No one's even said Randonneur yet.
    As it goes I always used to ride 28c Nimbus tyres (specialized) because they were £9 and were bulletproof. Still, I think they stopped making them.

  • Never had any luck with Continental tyres of any variant. To the point where I wouldn't even put them on my car, haha.

  • Unbrushed, unfinished update from Russia this morning... oooh!

  • Have the russians installed a chip to infiltrate the ATL advertising world?

  • I mean, if they haven't, we can surely say that we are now in fact overestimating the risk.
    What kind of self-respecting KGB agent wouldn't want to know what 16-24 y/o Zoomers think about 2-for-1 Soltan offers?!

  • the image also has a very torture chamber feel, I like it, hope to see you soon skidding on Q1

  • looks like a level from Manhunt.

  • Would you like to see some other angles of the workshop? Might help you understand where the scroll is hidden that will help you on the next level?

  • Just what is behind that door?

  • I use Gravelkings on my skidder (all be it the knobbly version). You’ll be fine, they’re good.

  • I wasn't worried, but I appreciate your input as ever, @Eamesy. I was just feeling that they were a bit narrow. Anyway, I returned them and a fellow forum'er stepped forward and offered me some of their 25.5 cast-offs, and so that's what will go on there for the time being.
