Skin wall (sometimes aka gum wall) clinchers

You guys who want cross tyres might want to look at these VO specials.

Challenge Grifo [skin wall]

Vittoria Cross [silver tread]

i want me some grifos soooo bad, but fear how they’d last on the glass strewn yarra blvd and johnson st parts of my CX rides. I also cant justify ‘race’ tyres yet… :frowning:

[and yes i know ‘featherweight’ blake hasnt punctured his yet]

the XNs are lovely… but with all the mud on the trails are not much better than normal road tyres for less pro riders. see mckennys experiences recently… :wink: i am however keen to see how they go come summer.

I worded Commuter Cycles up about those specials. Might see some stock in Oz with a bit of luck.

Float like a butterfly…

I don’t want to wait for internet purchases… Where can I get them now???
