Hurrah! The lovely tyres arrived yesterday, only just got back to the house in this crazy rain to unbox them.......so now I have to decide what they go on! I've never had anything NOS before but as these such a generous New Year gift I'd like to see them on a bike, not sit on a shelf.
They are a strong tan wall colour, so first thought was my old S&G Muddy Fox A as it's black so think they might go well with the colour....it's all pp sat on its original tyres which although being about 40years old aren't bad, but probably better put to one side for their sake......I know these tyres are way later (2015??) But have a vintage feel so shouldn't look out of place.
Other option is maybe the buckshaver....which has WTB raptors which look nice as all black, but these might also work against the red.....tread isn't mega aggressive though.
Thanks again Ant.....such a great start to the year, a nice thing among some less nice new year events.
I'll have a think about anything else I have but those feel.like the best two options..... weighted towards the fox.
