Pink with red valve caps.

You can patch them up like normal tubes, very retro too

Latex/Butyl mix I think Michelin bought Air-B at somepoint or something like that.

I use one I had back then as my spare inner tube now.

been using a pair in my main ride for years, very hard to puncture and superlight

been looking for some more for ages, used to be able to get three for a fiver at that one day bike sale thing, should of bought them all :roll:

It's only my spare as it came out of my wheel a few month back, had been used for over 15 years. Though not for much hard riding.

Though i'll be honest and I did go through quite a few of them, quite a lot of punctures and I did snakebite one. But they where light back in the day compared to butyl black one's but didn't hold air quite as well. Far better then the latex alternative (also wishes he had bought more )

Think we may have stray off the sale thread <whistles>

Certainly don't see them crop up for sale much.

Are the tires still available? If so, I'll have a go at 'em.

 

[KeepItSteel]

maybe you missed the point?...

 

[mfh126]

maybe you missed the point?...

Sure did. I was trying to read the thread from my BB. Hopefully your tubes show up soon?

 

[Chris]

No sign of my tubes yet either

Is Roly away?

I'm sure all will be cool. Good feedback, although could do with being consolidated and a link in profile added. Slow postage seems to be a common thread, think we have a bit of a Bob Marley here
