Conti Gatorskins or equivalent WITHOUT brown sidewalls?

[jay clock]

Ok, so it is all about the looks, but I can only see Gatorskins with brown sidewalls. Even the ones that say black do in fact have the brown mesh look.

I find it very unattractive and want to know if they do it completely black? Or which is the closest equivalent Conti tyre that is actually black?

Schwalbe Durano Plus. They're all black and come with the bonus of being made of rubber rather than concrete.

Those have the brown mesh...... Not very clear from the photo. But I am sure they do

I have the gp 4000s and there are no brown side walls.

^^ yep, GP4000S are all-black. 4seasons have the brown mesh too.

Continental grand prix GT, all black, no brown, 25c and reasonable puncture resistance.

I like the look of those. Ribble cheapest but still a mint. Will see if I can last a winter with the brown ones!

Conti gp4000s. The only tyre you need all year round IMO.

That's because 4 seasons and gators use the same carcass .

I found the GP 4000 more a summer tyre. I'm also a looks kinda guy but after I suffered a sidewalk puncture on my 3week old Gp4000 I felt that 4 seasons it was now the bad weather is moving in. I've ridden many a club ride down some gravelly roads on the 4 seasons and I'm very very impressed with the strength and puncture protection.
Maybe as Adrian suggests, grab a black marker and put Ya colouring skills to use
