Kenda K55 tyre's
« on: March 13, 2012, 10:03 PM »
Hi,

Does anybody know if you can buy Kenda K55  street BMX tyre's(20x1.75) in the UK?  They look very similar to Panaracer freestyle tyre's(black/tan walls), i've found them on Ebay, but they all seem to be in the States.

Any help much appreciated :daumenhoch:

Cheer's,   Buz ;)

Sorry lads, the guy only has 1 left, will be good on Kappy's unicycle.  :LolLolLolLol:

They were bargains as you say, £26.50 a pair inc postage, I bought 2 sets this month, one for my Performer but I let Steve Firebird have the other set yesterday.  :daumenhoch:

I may give the seller a buzz, see if he's getting any more. ;)

That's still not bad as there are little alternatives as pork chop doesn't seem to do his comp st repops in white anymore.The only other reasonably priced alternative if you want nice white tanwall freestyle tyres in 1.75 are the Odyssey Freqeuncy G flatland tyre at around 25 quid a pop.new skool but fine for a rider.My mate has just bought a set for his beat and they look ace! :daumenhoch:
