Yellow Label Comp 3s
« on: December 11, 2011, 03:37 PM »
I was going to put this in the wanted section but i need to find out if they even exist first. When Tioga reissued the Yellow Label Comp 3 Tyres did they do a 24" version of it?
I have a project coming up very soon which is a reissue frameset and rather than put real old school parts on it (which to my mind would then make it part real 80s part new) i want to keep the whole thing as much reissue (and thus true to it's age) as i possibly can, i have some parts but others are going to be a little harder to find.
If Tioga didn't do a reissue 24" Yellow Label Comp 3 what other 24" Comp 3 were about in 83 / 84 that i could get a good comparison to today?

Thanks in advance for your help fellas :daumenhoch:

Nope, the only did the 20" tyres.

Closest thing you'll get still about today are the Cheng Shin comp 3 style skinwalls.  I think you can also get Duro in skinwall (Porkchop does these) but they were not around back in the day ;).
