A little bump and a thought that I still don't have a 1989/90 kiliflyer comp

Was that the racing green one?

Probably not. The green one was likely the year after.

Hello - anyone got any suggestions for a good pair of 26 tyres 2.2 ish that are similar to the halo ? These are on this bike packing build at the moment but I'd like to get something a bit sturdier on the side walls for a camping tour I'm planning. The Saracen is not by any stretch a top ranger but it's so comfortable for a trip out and the inversed bar ends offer great riding positions. Any suggestions will be most helpful. Not fussed about tan wall really just good on trails and tarmac is the job for this bike. Thanks

Nobby nics?

Nobby nics?

Great - on first look I thought they were too chunky but they actually look quite good for trail/tarmac. Thanks

I rate Schwalbe Smart Sam tyres, they roll well on tarmac yet are very capable off road.
