« on: April 17, 2012, 09:10 PM »

olly the only reason my fit fafs have worn down so quick is too many 540 tyre taps!!!!

shane has had his longer than me and his are fine, he runs the 2.5 version, make sure your frame can take a tyre that big before u order them

there is nothing around that as light as the khe's at the momment, the primo v monsters look good (hence why ive ordered mine) only downside is the weight as there is no kevlar beaded version

look at odyssey tan walls too as they have a good selection, mart runs a beaded set

KHE do tan walls now, only in wire beaded versions though

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KHE-Light-Weight-BMX-20-x-2-1-MAC2-TAN-WALL-STREET-Trails-Street-Park-/180761184653?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item2a1634c98d#ht_1094wt_952

They're still light compared to v monsters and the like  :daumenhoch:

Keep saying i'll get some when my current KHE's wear out. fronts about 4 years old  ;D

I don't get out enough  :-[

I went for illegal tan walls and tubes for £35



It will be ok for a mess about if it's raining! The mini spine is tight but worth a ride!:)

gonna say it looks tight!! and no coping or its very small and not much platform space but then again it is made for scooters

which ones, the Magro or Amplo?

if Amplo then make sure your frame can take a 2.35 tyre!
