Any good tyre deals out there?

I think I might need a new one on the back. Commuting on bumpy cycle paths and a bit of road mainly.

Wiggle had Conti GP4000S on offer earlier in the week?

Can't remember the exact details but it seemed a good price.

Budget? Width?

Durano Raceguard at CRC a good deal, esp 25s

Or the plus at spa in 23mm for £16

I'm gonna go to 25 I think and then get some 23s later in the year when I need to squeeze the mudguards back on. Thanks for the links!

@vickster have just received notification that the duranos I ordered have been delivered. So should have some fun tonight trying to wrench them onto my wheels!

I had no problems seating 32s and I’m feeble and arthritic of hand

I hope I have a similar experience although my fat fingers aren't always helpful.

Turns out they went on no problem. I had more trouble trying to get the back wheel back on than I did fitting the tyres. Dunno what the fuss is about wire beads?
