Schwalbe "Rocket Ron" lightweight 650b tyres, unused.

[GSB]

Schwalbe Rocket Rons. Nice light tyre, speedy, grippy, and has "Rocket Ron" written on the sidewall.

Would make an ideal present for a cycling friend who goes by the name of Ronald...

...just so long as he rides a bike on 650b wheels, which makes me wonder if they're ever likely to find a home on Retrobikes, but I guess it's worth a shot.

These are 27.5" x2.25", folding. 490g each. Bought in error, and I don't know anyone named Ronald, so I'm asking £50 for the pair posted in the U.K. which makes these a veritable bargain...

650b not retro enough for the average Retrobiker then?

Shame, lovely tyres. Perhaps I'll just stick em in the loft until they are retro!

Re:

Are they SnakeSkin or normal Evo ones?

 

[GSB]

The lighter 'Evo' ones I think...

Cool! Can I nab some photos to michael.ri.moore AT gmail.com please?

 

[GSB]

Certainly. You'll have to wait until Monday though, when I'm back at work. If you're after some specific detail, let me know and I'll phone someone in the office.

Perfect, I'm happy to wait.
