Vote: Which 26” tyres would you like reissued ? 🛞

5 votes each

Been a number of threads on here recently about tyre choice and what’s about, as well as the reissue Smoke & Darts being sold out again.

I’ve also taken the liberty of emailing 4 of the manufacturers to say ‘oi why don’t you reissue your old canvas walls as we are paying hundreds for old sets on eBay’:
- £600 for Onza racing Porcs white
- £150 for NOS Specialized
- £150 for NOS Wildgrippers

But I wondered what the majority would like to see reissued beyond my preferences.

Wouldn’t it be epic if each manufacturer reissued 1 or 2 old models each. Surely they would also sell out every few months like the smoke & darts do.

Name your favourite and place your top 3 multiple choice votes.

Ps - I’ve added Smoke & Dart on the options list even though we know they currently available.

I would like a pair of Michelin Hi-lite Hot, although it's likely I remember them being better than they were. I would settle for Ground Controls though.

IRC missile 26” tyres, currently on my bike but when they’re worn I don’t want to pay £300 for a set.

Hang on I’ve seen it’s not on the list.

Then I’d like the other IRC ones.
