Hi
Is it possible to get new high pressure tyres with an old school look? Maybe 80 to 100 psi? Don't want the big all black ones ;D
Thanks
-
Tanwall Frquency g tyre, 100psi and look a bit like acs true tyres :daumenhoch:
-
Cheers,they look like great tyres :) got 50 psi in and bit soft for the old school tricks .
-
The frequency g's are a great tyre! :daumenhoch:
-
Cheers,where is the best place to get them from?

Give them a shout Paul :daumenhoch:
I bought the white 1.75's which unfortunately they only had one left.....found that out when I ordered a pair and only one arrived lol. But they did have some black/skinwall ones though at that time so you might be lucky.....they were £20 too with them :daumenhoch:
-
Cheers Gav. Going to call on my way home . Hopefully help me master a few more tricks :LolLolLolLol:

Paul - just checking you are running spokes and not Tuffs? The high pressure stuff will pop off Tuffs first flex that's all mate.
I run midschool Primo V-Monsters at 65-70 psi and they grip timber on the edges like sh@t to a blanket. Lots of choice out there with a skinwall on so you can mix up the tech - i'd never ride oldschool tech tyres for sure..... (got a fractured skull from doing exactly that 5yrs ago.....)

I got the frequency G tyres from Winstanleys I looked at the other ones but I liked these more ;D and I don't think I will be going on ranps being 43, 14 stone and a dodgy knee :LolLolLolLol:
Just using bike for the rides this year and trying some old school tricks, nothing too extreme :D
-
:daumenhoch:
-
They look cool Paul!! Nice one mate :daumenhoch:
-
Yes they still look old school :) pity my footpump cant pump them up enough :LolLolLolLol:
-
lol....How much did you pay in the end?
-
Look great them Paul :daumenhoch: Period feel with modern spec :smitten:
Hoping my white ones will be here tomorrow :)
-
46 ish for the pair, but if the wife asks I had to only put a few quid towards them :LolLolLolLol: partially true did get 20 quid yesterday and selling some old 80s bmx magazines on Ebay this week so may change grips etc :)
Good mix of old school looks and should stand up to my weight gain :LolLolLolLol: get them pumped up fully tomorrow and take them for a spin if I don't injure myself on my other mid life crisis as its time to get the Bauer turbos out for over 18s roller skating!

Which ones are those? The black sidewall doesnt really show up too well on my screen.....must have it set too bright ;D

My new tyres are 1.85 front and rear. Just been out on it for a quick blast and they are great :). Think I have about 80psi in.
