Very good tyres.
Hold me in good stead for many thousands of miles.

vittorio rubino's or zaffiro's are ok

+1 on that. Used them both and very good for the price.

Thanks guys, I've just ordered some vittorio rubino's and onza tubes for collection from Evans cycles.

Couldn't go wrong for £60 for a Louis garneau helmet (tried Instore but there was a 20%off online they wouldn't match), 2 tyres and 2 tubes.

Guess I'll be busy this weekend

If you buy a tyre there are perhaps 5 factors: grip, durability, puncture resistance, speed, weight and cost

.

Or 6 even
Or 7 if you add look.

All sorted. An LBS had bontrager r2's on special at £13 so got a pair and some tubes. Only downside is the colour as only the red was reduced. Looks luv'ly on a lilac peugeot Optimum

Zafiros for me. Loads of nice (ok retro-naff) colours and only £6.25 each here

Kb cycles in newburn but they only had red bontrager r2's on special.

I've had a Vitoria Rubino arrive at Evans cycles which looks good value at £11.59. It matches the blue r2 that was already fitted but I've already fitted the reds and I quite like them, even on a lilac Optimum
