  • you want buy?

    as 'project kevin' nears completion i'm after a cream or amber walled tyre preferably without branding on the tyre wall -

    anyone got any suggestions for said item - ta.

  • Good luck finding them.. :)

  • hippy you should have put those tyres on ebay and start a londonfgss bid war. too late.

  • not those hippola^^^^ - I'm after a black tyre with the sidewall/'clinchy' bit amber or cream

  • contis do some, i think decathlon sell them cheap, but not 100% sure.

  • cheers stef, think what i'm after is something that looks like a tub, a bit like this back wheel

  • edmundane hippy you should have put those tyres on ebay and start a londonfgss bid war. too late.

    I'm destroying them myself for the good of humanity. Tyres should not be white.

  • michelin world tour if they go narrow enough (more of a fat touring tyre).

  • Google for "gum wall" and your tyre size.

  • There was the Vittoria Open Corsa, which was available in black tread and natural (amber) sidewalls, but unfortunately not made anymore, replaced by the Evo version (ugly). I'm not sure if Veloflex still make tyres with black tread and natural sidewalls, but they definitely did. Those tyres are the nearest thing to tubs in clincher form, in fact the casing and tread are the same as their tubs but with beads instead of being sewn up.

  • I have vredestein fortezza's with natural tub like sides and black tops. 25mm and nice to roll around town.
