Got hold of these ratty old tyres from my "mystery source" failry cheaply. I was just after some amber wall tyres and as these were micelin thought they must be decent.
But they look really odd, almost like tubs. The tread doesnt make much sense either. A thin black layer of rubber almost painted on, with no rubber on the sides.Lots of half-moon paddle type nobbles. Cant see what these would be good for,
thought cyclocross momentarily. But could you really do that on 23c tyres? Also the smooth non-knobbly one is only 20c (the muddy one at the top)
Reckon I should keep these to run as street tyres, or would they be worth more to somebody else?
