Skin Wall Tyres?? Whats Available ???

Hi Chaps, just wanted to know what skinwall tyres you all use on your retro builds, I know that some of the old treads go for good money but are there any brands still producing the classic skinwall look tyre??

are there any brands still producing the classic skinwall look tyre??

I was in my LBS at the weekend and I asked them to look into it. They could only find Schwarble, but sadly they only do slick MTB tyres

Really! :shock: The only new Fire XC's I've ever seen (and own) are black wall with optional colour bands :?

I would be interested in seeing a pic of them mounted if you have one at all?

I got a pair of these from All Terrain cycles too. Proper amber walls too..... far better than the ebay picture suggests. Think it was around £36 posted for the pair.
Still waiting to ride them though as my latest "O" is stuck at the LBS awaiting the bottom bracket to arrive from wiggle. :cry: .... out of stock for another 2 weeks :cry: :cry:

cheers,
