A set of matching tires has moderately improved its ungainly appearance I’m sure we can all agree. I splashed out on 2.15 Schwalbe Big Ben Plus. Had to pay double postage cos it was impossible to find anyone who had 20 + 27.5 in 2.15

There’s plenty of space for them other than the mudguard mount so that’ll probably have to be remodelled when I find some mudguards. Oh, and cos of the horizontal stays you have to deflate the tire to fit the wheel. Meh. Worth it for the cushion and balloon appeal imho.

Oh, and they are some hard tires to evenly seated for some reason.

Have a look at Continental Contact Urban.
I've found schwalbes cheaper tyres to be quite unround- whereas the two sets of Contact Urbans I've had have been flawless - they also roll really well and come in a wide range of sizes.

They’re much better than big bens I think. Also about half the weight IIrC. last time I checked tho stock is pretty limited in the Uk at the mo.

I might be able to do a group order if anyones interested?
