  • got one that's exactly the same colour as my salmon-pink frame, been riding it for a few weeks now. it's a really comfy ride, that twin rail shit takes a lot of the bump out of the ride, i keep on thinking it's going flat because of the lack of bumps sometimes, haha. skids quite nicely too, & gives quite a nice squeak, think it'll take a while to skid through.

  • update: shit for skids, played a game of polo on them last night and they've skidded through to some kind of yellow inner colour, doesn't seem to be any puncture protection after that as i got a puncture today despite pumping them up to the suggested psi this morning.

    avoid if you're going to be skidding a lot.

  • Hey Taki, were you the guy on the Diamant last night?
    Here's mine :-)

  • had mine for 2 weeks now and im very happy

  • ah that's lovely that is! they do seem to have a habit of choosing some really strange colours for their bikes though, haha. if you ever want to sell it... ;)

  • hehe. Never!

  • Bought a pair of these last night before the an alleycat, two hours later I'd skidded them down to the threads! Admittedly, Birmingham roads aren't great quality, but two hours is a piss take.

  • shite tyres.

    rando FTW

  • just to reiterate the above.
    these tyres are shit.
    shit shit shit.
    shit.
    yesterday at teh alleykitten I skidded through one set.
    and I've had the set for 1 week.
    I have 21 potential skid patches, FFS!
    Shit. and then I got a pinch flat....
    right I'm off to buy some randonneurs.

  • multiple personality ? or was it a test of time ?

  • ^check the posting times, he probably went trough them and/or they gave him a bad time, so he came to the ^ conclusion. nice to let us know, since people often tend to hype (only?) their equipment, lacking comparisons and/or ignoring obvious flaws. (and i don't take me out of this either, i love my gear, innit?)

  • I bought one of these a week ago for the rear. It's gone through already. Utter shite.

    no shit

  • not as much grip as I like nor salvation from satan but you buy cheap, buy twice.

  • Probably a good idea to avoid anything with courier or messenger in the title, except maybe Suginos.

  • not a bad tyre got a pair the other week, bit tight to get on, so far so good

  • ^next week

    "shit tyres, skidded thru in 2 weeks"

  • The original Twin Rails are a dirt jumping tyre—*i.e soft. Of course they're going to be shit for riding fixed on the road!

    It's just a marketing gimmick
