Default Anyone have spare tires they want to

sell for cheap or donate? I've getting my road bike in shape Dusted the dust off this bike...LOOK...inside and needs new tires as the originals show signs of age w/ cracking etc. I dont know anything about road tires so i'll take your word for it.

thanks

That bike is so dope. Shame on Foo for not riding it. If you can't find a donor, Nashbar always has cheap deals on road tires.

Just don't buy Continentals. Those sidewalls are practically see through.

hehe i'll give it a test run as it's 17 or so miles from home and i'm trying to avoid 133 as i've see too many distracted drivers on that stretch...maybe go down glenwood to moulton (which turns to irvine center dr) then to main street we'll see

Just be careful on Moulton between Glenwood and Lake Forest - that's prime Seizure World territory...
