Shona needs a tyre!

Well Princess, Don's recommendation would be the trusty Ignitor, the only tyre never to leave me deflated. Bulldogs and Toros are rock solid too, but I would give the nod to the Ignitor for all year use and just deadly in our current dry conditions.
thanks Don, surely you should put together a spreadsheet of pros and cons of all tyres,..
i'd never buy tyres without passing it by you first!
Don, how do you rate kenda tyres ? I saw a video ages ago and there were gurls in hotpants with the big boobies wearing t-shirts with " Kenda" on them and I haven't been able to stop thinking about kenda tyres since !
hold on..
speaking of Shona..she was wearing a cowboy hat and a checked shirt in the boozer last night..
have you taken up Line Dancing ,Shona ?

Hi Don,

Would you recommend the wire tyre or the fold tyre?

Cheers
If you are running tubeless then wire, they seat easier with a track pump. Folding usually means a trip to an air line. If not tubeless then go with whatever is cheapest.

I've only ever had the Nevegals that came with the Trance, and all I really remember about them was taking them off and replacing them with Ignitors, they seemed round enough though.

But do go on about the hotpants...
Recently bought some part worn Ignitors from Joe and I'm very impressed - great grip and wear better than the Toros but they do drag a bit on the road (which is important on a Tuesday night!)
i don't get the whole drag a bit on the road thing, can you not just pedal harder..thats what i do !!!
or eat less pies..i suspect the whole tyre drag issue is related to the Body mass Index
richie no matter how hard you try to bring this thread into nonsense the tyre geeks that are don and rithers just can't help them selves...
no i'm taking up rodeo baby!!!
