  • are there any tanwall tyres with reflective strip?
    Law here requires reflective elements on wheels (either tyres or fugly spoke reflectors)

  • are there any tanwall tyres with reflective strip?

    I don't think so, the main are Kojak/Continental or Shwalbe. If tan, then no reflective strip. If you really want tanwall, time to get those spoke reflectors out or you could try these?*

    I'm fascinated to know where 'law here' is and whether you would ever be stopped for not having reflective elements?

    *not an endorsement

  • thats what I thought...those reflectors are no option XD

    "Here" is Austria, especially in Vienna.
    There are some hotspots where the police enforce "bike stops" and check cyclics for their gear.
    If only 1 thing is missing, they probably gonna let you go without paying (depends on your attitude towards them). Otherwise you have to pay (20-30€) per missing piece!
    Citybikes require: lights, bell, reflectors front/back/pedals and wheels
