WTB decent 20c clinchers

Posted on
  • Need some 20c tyres for a frame with very limited clearance. Tan wall or black. Helo very much appreciated

  • I had the same trouble with my rossin pista. The ones I found that were good but didn’t break the bank were continental gp4000sii
    Had a quick Google search and couldn’t see them immediately but here’s some 4000s for sale.
    On sale and everything right now you lucky thing..

  • If the above no good then think have some NOS tanwall something or other in the shed

  • I’ve got some 22c Vittoria TT ones new in the box if of interest?

  • I’ve got some Vittoria Diamante Pro in 22 barely used and going for free if that’s of any use?

  • I’ve got a pair of Schwalbe Blizzards. Excellent condition. 700 x 20.

    The labels are different but essentially they are a pair.

    Drop me a PM if you’re interested.

  • Thanks all. I bought some of the gp4000s suggested by @Creek_Tebsin . I think the 22's will still be too tight as 23's rubbed paint off the sear tube. @Big_Ted if you could see what tan walls you have I'd probably be interested as will see what looks best, I also have one 20c challenge criterion in tan wall so would be good to have something spare to match.

  • Ahh I’ve just had a panic there, pretty sure those ones are clinchers and not tubs but looking again I can’t be certain.. might be worth a quick email before they ship them?

  • I ordered them approximately 4 minutes after you posted this morning and got an email saying they were shipped before 9. They looked like clinchers to me as well. I'll find out what they are in a couple of days and if tubs find out what the returns policy is like. Appreciate the link at any rate. I remember burning through 18c gp4000's what seems like only a few years ago.

  • Impressive! I’m sure if they’re that organised they’ll take a return as well. However many you ordered I think you got the last ones, when I went to check earlier they were all sold out

  • Just arrived, clinchers, phew!

  • Yessss!!! That was quick, is that shop just down the road or something??

  • Kilmarnock to London, just very efficient I guess

  • My dad was born in Ayrshire, a productive lot.. I just thought that I hadn’t even asked what they were going on, pictures when you’re done please!

  • Absolutely. It's a 90's Boschetti. Might take me a while as I have to move around group sets.

  • Apologies for delay, still need to get into the depths of the shed but do have these folding Michelin Axial Super Comp in 23c, look barely used

  • Thanks for the offer but 23c are gonna be too large for the frame.

  • No problem, will still try to dig out the 20s when I get chance

  • No problem. As and when. I'm doing two builds at the same time and I have some tyres to go on for now but will probably want to try out tan walls at some point. Thanks.
