what helmet is that the wheel is sitting on?

Was going to ask the same thing. So, what helmet is that wheel sitting on?

Looks like the Catlike Impact 2.

Or the Catlike Kompact! Depending which key you press on the keyboard.

Farnear fixed gear specific tyre. 7mm thick!?

saw those, sound great, and I assumed the thickness is to make it last long for skidding?

You're a bit dirty really aren't you?

I have no idea what you might be suggesting sir!

Wouldn't the ride of that tyre be absolutely shit?

Wouldn't the ride of that tyre be absolutely shit?

u never know until you try.
but at 7mm thick it might be heavy also ?

can't be as heavy as some of those puncture-resistance tyres.

can't be as heavy as some of those puncture-resistance tyres.

true, but heavier than normal, if u get me.

They must be lighter then the marathon plus, which weigh around 800g for a pair !!

well these are 500g......each!

mother of god that is heavier than marathon plus...

oh ! im such a dimwit sometimes. marathon plus 32c are 800g each !

On London roads, that pink mech will look like a black mech within a week.

500g each seemed normal to be honest (for puncture resistance really), especially since this is a 25c we're talking about and not 23c.

my Schwalbe Stelvio plus was a 23c, but weight 340g, very heavy for a 23c (normal Stelvio weighted 235g) got a lots of life in it for skidding thought.

I think they change the Stelvio name to Durano.

Those logos on the Ultremos ARE shit. They'll go for Vittoria Diamante Pros. Just had them still in stock for my roadies.

Half kilo for a tyre!

Is that true?

i noticed they changed the name too, couldn't find any reference to Stelvio.
