Brand new pair. One has been fitted but never ridden. Close up picture is of that one. Other has never been removed from the packaging. Selling due to tight clearance on my frame (see my post in mechanics). On a 19mm internal and 24mm external they used up to around 29.5mm. £75 the pair which...

I have just sold a set of wheels and now have the tyres left over as now running tubeless. They are in great condition with lots of life left in them. Only used on my best bike during the summer. I will put up some photos tomorrow but in the meanwhile hear is a pic from the wheelset sale...

I don’t normally spend so much money on tyres but they are for my best bike and I want to give them a try. 700c x 25mm, tubeless not required. The cheapest I’ve found is £75/pair with 2 free inner tubes & free delivery from Merlin Cycles, any cheaper anywhere else...

Used for about 20 miles, mostly off road. 2 tyres and 2 tubes. £30 Price includes postage within the UK, which will be deducted if collected (Blackburn, Lancashire).

Hi all, I recently ordered some Continental tyres for my Trek MTB (I know, I know, I should have bought Bontager and I have now). The Contis were an absolute nightmare trying to fit onto the rim. I broke 2 plastic levers so I had to use metal ones, pinching 2 tubes, and scratching my rim in the...

After some research I am speccing a new bike with Continental GP5000 tubeless as opposed to Schwalbe G One Speed. Anyone using either of these and can comment ? Also I did prefer a maximum 30mm but the Continental is 28 or 32mm. So it would mean the smaller size

I only use Continental Gatorskin due to their puncture resistance. I need to get some new tyres and would be happy to try the GP5000 which, generally seem highly rated overall but I can't see many reviews from people who have used them for significant mileages and some are claiming that they...

Quick one , how much is rolling resistance or effort required effected if the rotation direction of a tyre is fitted the wrong way , asking for a friend honest :whistle:

Hello. I cannot for the life of me get a new 25c Gatorskin on my Giant PR2 Wheel. The wheel came setup as Tubless, with Gavia tyres. The rear needs replacing so went for a Conti Gatorskin. Even using my Crank Brothers Speedier Lever plus other levers - just won't go on. Any advice appreciated.

Continental Diesel MTB tyres 62-559 / 26" x 2.5 (lightly used) deadstock Bought these in Winter 2011 for riding in snow. They went on the bike (a disc-spec Subway) but the chainstays were marginally too narrow so rubbed the rear tyre slightly (see pic below where the wear is visible on the...

Anyone tried the new(ish) Conti tubeless variant? I've been trying a set out and while they ride well they do seem to be particularly sensitive to pressures. The Conti site quotes a recommended 65psi (for 28s) and a maximum of 94psi. I inflated mine to 78 psi in error and they just blew off...

Bought in 2014 for commuting with my Dahon Helios Rolf Accel wheels, only to discover too late that they were the wrong size and I couldn't fit anything bigger than 28-406. Both unused - still with tags, 20 * 1 3/8 (37-406) £15 for the pair + P&P (or collect for free if in the Woking area)

I'm looking at upgrading the stock Schwalbe Lugano on my new road bike as they are budget tyres and don't seem to have a good reputation. I'm mostly concerned for grip, wet weather performance and puncture resistance. I'm less concerned with weight and speed. I've been looking at the...

I appreciate I may be starting an argument second only to a h*lm*t thread, but here goes... I've been happily using Schwalbe Marathon Plus and Marathon Plus Tour tyres for nearly a decade. In that time the only real punctures I had was one caused by 'user error' ie me overloading the Xtracycle...

I'm based in the Czech Republic and the brakes on bikes here are the wrong way round. i.e. right lever is rear brake, and left is front. Took a little bit of getting used to at first. Anybody know why they are like this?

New and unused. Would much rather they were collected. £20 for the pair. Collection from the GL2 area of Hardwicke, Gloucestershire.

Continential gp4000s 2 tyres .Chain reactions selling them a pair for £30. What's the difference compared to my standard giant tyres on my contend ? Might buy them if it's an upgrade tho my giant tyres has plenty of life in them yet .

Seeing as the sun is set to be putting an appearance in today, I thought it would be nice to get the best bike out of hibernation, so on Saturday afternoon I started giving it a once over & inflate the tyres, this is where I noticed a small split in the tread of the rear tyre, I wasn't...

I picked up this 1970's Carlton Continental Frame locally, 25 1/2 inch. I'm hoping to build it into a Winter bike with parts mainly from another bike. Seems like a heavy, solidly built frame, "tru wel" tubing apparently (Carlton's cheapest gaspipe?) I've ordered a couple of Carlton...

Another recent arrival but no storage means it's got to go. Covered here where CC members plus a few hours of searching have identified the bike probably as a Carlton Continental from about 1973. The bike has had a respray at some point, possibly originally red. Tyres hold air and it rolls...

As I'm selling the bike using 406 tyres, I don't need the spares anymore. Turn out to be quite a few, all of them new and unsused, carefully stored indoors in dry and dark place. quick summary: 3 Schwalbe Durano 28-406 (folding tyre), 1 Conto ComfortContract 32-406 3 Schwalbe Durano 28-406...

Hi, I had a puncture yesterday, and while out in the rain I rushed to fit new inner tube. By the time i got home the tyre was flat again. Upon closer inspection a sharp tiny piece of stone had embedded itself into the rubber and hit the tube. I thought these tyres were supposed to add an...

Barely used, just a handful of miles so they look brand new. Call it £30 for the pair posted, UK only of course. A quick internet browse shows they look about £28-29 each new. I don't have PayPal or anything so it'll have to be a trust based transaction, you transfer the money and I'll mail...

This morning I grabbed my bike, and set off for Basinggrad. 4 miles in, the worse than rubbish Continental GP 4 seasons punctured (Yet again). So tyre comes off, tube comes out, tyre gets checked, a tiny piece of glass has gotten through the outstanding puncture protection (yet again). So I...
