WTD: Cheap 26" tyres

Post by samwise »

Hi All,

Anyone got a pair of 26 x 2.0 - 2.4 ish tyres kicking around?

Needed for my station bike so something fast rolling would be preferred.

Cheers.

yes some Bontranger mud x at 2" ish [ its not very aggressive its basically knobbly]
A maxxis Minion at probably 2.3
A minion rear [ tear and repaired so wont go tubeless
One other forget what as they are all in the attic Big earl?
Bontis would be my choice for fast rolling but none of them really are
all folding if that matters and all t will go tubeless except the minion rear [ which is nearly new]
Postage for them only required and a donation to the bear

These sound like a good option if you're able to check them for me. Thanks! :-bd

Sorry for the delay.

They're Michelin Run-R - sidewall says 1.4 but I recall they come up quite a bit bigger and they do measure 50mm uninflated.

Also just found a pair of Vittoria Randonneur in 1.5 flavour.

Neither have had much use at all. £20 per pair posted?
