Title: Stick on tyres?????Availability?
Post by: Grinder on December 12, 2009, 04:51 PM
i'm sure you've all seen the gold araya's on ebay that recquire 'glue on tyres'. Realistically what are the chances of finding some?
I had some BITD and wouldn't mind some more but there's not a lot of point of there are no tyres ;)

Only if you are a noo noo and don't put them on correctly leaving the glue or adhesive tape sufficient time to bond

and they'll pinch-flat constantly.


Only if you under-inflate them (should be a min of 7 bar) and are 15st or more in which case you probbly wouldn't be riding on 1 1/8 tubular rims  ::)
