You will be able to find a 8-10 pound tyre from Schwalbe if you check out a few Evanses, I know they stock them.

Damn, that was a total guess (based on convict experience with cheap bike shops) and it's been verified by a proper Englishman innit! :)

I have a New Michelin World Tour 27 x 1 1/4. Bit oldschool but solid. It's yours if you want it. What time you setting off? Don't know how you'll get it. I'll be in Clerkenwell between 9 - 9:30am in the morning.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
