Wanted: 20 inch tyres

Posted on
  • Anyone have any to offer me?
    Preferably 20 x 1.75 more slick than knobbly.

    Thanks!

  • Try tyres for kid bikes, trailers, etc. Or treadless BMX.
    I can't offer you some, but these tyres are not rare.

  • Which 20"? There are two...

    451 and 408 or something.

  • I assume ETRTO 47-406

  • Yup ETRTO 47-406 :)

  • Thing is, I'm looking for something of decent quality too

  • get some marathon plus. they are really nice, i dont have any though.

    I'm also looking for some 20" road tyres. 500 X 28A

  • Found some marathons (old thread pattern) for £9 each, free shipping on Wiggle. Good deal?

  • Just bought the last two... Bit of an impulse decision. Hope it was a good one!

    There's these 35mm whitewalls from SJS: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/schwalbe-hs166-rigid-road-tyre-black-white-500-x-35a-%2837-440%29-pre-2011-prod12883/

    I've decided to get my shopper wheels rebuilt with 451 rims rather than scrape around for 500A tyres. It wont be 100% original any more, but I'll have a bit of choice, instead of relying on a single supplier and tyre. 28mm Duranos should be a bit quicker too.

  • Did I sell you that shopper? I once sold one on here ages ago...

  • No, this is my sisters old one from way back. It's a Royal Enfield Revelation, which was a rebadged Vindec, apparently.

    I've got new silver rims now, and will be dropping them into Arup for rebuilding, once I've serviced the SA 3 speed. It's more of a long term project so it'll be a while before it comes out on a ride.
