That sounds about right, maybe a week later than that.

Try getting in touch with Cambrian tyres, they're the importers so if anyone has some it'll be them.

So I see that the Continental Baron's are now for sale with uk bike store and leisurelakesbikes . What puzzles me is that they are priced around £15 compared to £50 as per this months singletrack article. Are these the same tyre??

they do a basic wire bead version and an apex (tubeless ready) black chilli. I suspect the £15 ones are the basic wire bead version.
