Personally I love the look of a thin tube steel, sloping top tube Kona with stupidly thin slicks on. The ‘80’s London Courier Look’. For this hilarious but rapid approach I have two sets of slicks:
Some 1990 Tioga City Slicker - only a few miles, I remember buying these for a 10km time trial in Sussex in 1990 - on a steel Marin with ProCircuit (Manitou 1 copy) forks. Mad. And I didn’t come last. Wire bead, 1.25 x 26. 8/10 condition, still really flexible, no cracking. Fully useable.
Over on ebay USA, 30:00 for one! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/25479777...uI_a5MAOOFm5ngYYTgWRXggveO0d6RSIaAsr8EALw_wcB
That’s too much...so00 for two, plus postage.
SOLD ... And then some really thin Durano slicks from Schwalbe - Kevlar bead, really light, very grippy. Very fast. Very little wear. They include appropriate inner tubes. 26 x 1.10 - weeny. Look fab.
38:00 each with inner tube. So...25:00 for the pair plus postage.
And now a couple of singletons....
Hutchinson TOP SLICK - blackwall with green stripes in tread - see photo - really weeny 26 x 1.00 Hutchinson Top Slick with inner tube of right size.
Mad and tiny slick. Looks fabulous. Unused.
7:00 plus postage
WTB SLICKASAURUS - 26x38/32 which is just over 1.25 - lovely tyre from the late 1990s - blackwall.
With inner tube
Great fast rolling slick. Low mileage, very little use.
7.00 plus postage
