From a 12mile bike ride, 5 on road and 7 on rough. Tree roots and no rocks. Bit of mud.

For the money I'm swaying to the wired.

well thats sorted so no longer a thread hijack but anyone else fed up with fitting folding tyres - i guess it might just be "can't teach an old dog new tricks" but can whip a wired tyre on and off and pump it (oo er mrs) in a couple of minutes but every folding tyre i fit resembles some sort of wrestling match that goes on and on

Happy to refund, but you would need to cover postage, which me to you was £7.50!

Don't listen to boxelder! What a ****.
Told me he didn't think the one had been used. There was a 4 inch skid patch the best one. Obviously they diddent like them.

Excuse me jacob46 but you asked a question about cross marks and I offered you a pair at a little over half of the price you were going to pay. The pair I sent you were the wrong size, but most folk would assume 26" unless otherwise stated. I've offered to refund if you cover the postage for what I see as your error. If you check the posts/emails you'll see I was trying to give you some advice and asked what the tyres were to be fitted to - you still didn't state 29". I've always offered a refund for stuff I sell on here, if the buyer wasn't happy. In this case your error would have cost me £7.50 in postage.
Post a picture of this 4" skid patch and I'll still refund. Without that the offer of a refund is retracted. You've been on here for 3 weeks, I've been buying and selling stuff without problems for over a decade. You haven't emailed me to mention that you weren't happy, but insult me on here.
Not the STW way I'm afraid. You know my email address.

Jacob46

It's your fault for not saying you have 29" wheels as they are a minority on here. Sell them on!

Problem is jacob46 without you putting up the photo's as you were invited to, it just looks like you are full of shite. STW'ers seem very fond of referring to their lists of people who they won't trade with, and you may have eased yourself onto those lists (if they exist).
