Best amber walled tyres

Posted on
  • I'm looking for some tyres (27") to complete my vintage style build and fancy some retro looking amber walled ones.
    Seen one or two on internet retail sites but they look pretty chunky and weigh alot. Not really after a touring tyre, would prefer something more on the slick side.

    Cheers for any info

  • Look at our sponsors SJS Cycles and then search the forum for "Gumwall" tyres.

  • I've got a pair of Veloflex Paves on my bike look great, dont think they do 27" clinchers but the tubulars might come in the correct size (not really up on tubular sizes)

    Also running veloflex's, theys the best.
    No available 27" though
    Deda do some gum-walled race tyres. Might be worth checking.
    Other than that, Panracer Pasela come in 27" down to 1".

  • Cheers for the replies.

    I did look at the Schwalbe on the SJS site but would prefer a smoother tread on the main part of the tyre. The Panaracer Pasela's look slicker and the weight of 300grm isn't too bad.
    Seems to be a much better/bigger choice for 700c tyres than 27" tyres.

  • 27" Panaracer Paselas FTW!!! I have them on two bikes...

    Good to know. Was looking at the 26" version for future plans.
