    Rim about to crack?

    I've found the 'premonition' is on fleeBay, not sure what the difference is other than the thread is somewhat indented?

    Ritchey Z-Max EVOLUTION

    That already looks much better! Just realised after posting this thread these are pretty impossible to find in the UK now.. But if people have had good experiences might start a wanted thread?

    Does anyone have any experience with these? I know they're not tanwall, but they're not too modern looking either? https://ritcheylogic.com/bike/tires/z-max-evolution-tire I couldn't find anything definite on the search bar?
