Andre from Rush sports told me they won't bring it in due to interest and price.

Not familiar with these retro looking tyres, any particular reason other than looking like you've just stepped off the set of "starsky and hutch"

Because they look cool with a black bike and why do you want to look like everyone else. Starsky and Hutch are cool and different looking in their own way. But then again some people are like sheep.

Having some interesting problems with my Onza setup. I switched from being a serious Conti fan to the Onzas and loved them off the bat.

 

Running Ibex front, Canis rear.

Now my Canis sidewall canvis started showing and leaking a bit (diagonal lines both sides) and not from rub or damage.

And on Sat my Ibex "buckled"? or something like that. I tried re-seating it but it's got a permanent deformed section. Which I'm kind of peeved about seeing that it's not that old and the tread is still perfect.

 

Is this a thing that generally happens, or just a freak occurrence? Because now I need a full new set and like the Ibex's enough to get a new set again (Ibex 2.4 F 2.25 R)

Else I'm keen to try something new (Possibly Maxxis Highroller - if I can find someone who stocks them)

Had deforming on a Nobby Nic before. Very frustrating, looks like the rims is buckled but its just the tire, think some of the strands in the bead got damaged. Rode it for a little while as it still sealed up just fine.

 

Oh and good luck finding High Rollers. I ended up having to import.

Highrollers will be in the country by the end of the month Rush sports are the new agents.

Good to know. Thanks.

I tried sitting it in the sun for a bit with a lot of air pressure in it. Fixed it a bit but still wobbles. Very frustrating.

 

Balls about the High Rollers.
