Looking Good Mate!!! You just need to go and get it dirty now!

GaryOrange5 (Mar 1, 2015 at 10:27)

Yup, once it's all working, it'll be heading out

GaryOrange5 (Mar 1, 2015 at 10:27)

And thanks

The rear tyre is an interesting choice, have you used them before? I am aware of the brand, but I don't know anything else about it. From a glance it looks fast and grippy dare I say it even looks like the rubber may be pretty sticky too.

They're actually the same tyre back and front. Vee Flow's, never used them. I picked them up for £14.99 each! They're folding bead, 120tpi, dual compound (tackee). They look pretty rounded on the rims so will have to experiment with pressures etc. Hopefully they'll work out well. Failing this I'll switch them out for a set of Onza Ibex.

£14.99?!? Wow! I would be interested to know how you get on with them

Once I finally get it up and running, I'll let you know how I get on with them.
They retail at £30 I think but plant x/on one are selling them at £15. They're selling the Fuild model for £20 which also look good.

Shit, they're down to a tenner now!

Also the fluids are same price as well...

Couldn't resist ordering some Fluids at that price to try out

I'm not surprised at a tenner each! I would too, but all of my current bikes run tubeless. However, i am tempted to order a couple of pairs just to put them in the shed for as and when.

GaryOrange5 (Mar 1, 2015 at 14:07)

I've not tried them tubeless, might well be good with some sealant in them.
Hopefully they'll be good. Even if they only last a couple of months at that price

Very true!
