It worked! As-yet unridden; hoping to get out this week and get everything set up/ adjusted.

No photo but I can recommend the Schwalbe Ones in skinwall. They are a bit darker and more robust to dirt than my previous Vitorias. Really nice look.
Flippin' love skinwalls. Brings out the 90's teenager in me!

I walked up Ingleborough from Ingleton on Saturday and 4 or 5 blokes came hurtling down the lane on bikes.
Most of them were on FS but the coolest guy by far was the bloke on the green HT with skinwall tyres.

TBH I'm not a big fan of the skinwalls on normal MTBs, though the Nates on fatbikes look great.
Not really a fan of skinwalls here either - my son quite likes his though:
My friend's son has the same Commencal, it's a fantastic little kid's bike. that
copperpot what bike is that?
It started out as a Ridgeback Tempest from around 2005, it was my summer project in 2018. Built up out of bits from my parts box. I've set it up as a single speed commuter.
Here's a few other pictures of it.
Got some Billy Bonkers for the DBR Axis TT.
Good Lord - there’s some ugly bikes on this thread! Although there are also some nice skinwall tires 😛
Was gonna buy some WTB Nano TCS skin walls the other week. Saved £15 by sticking with black ones though.
I know cool story eh....
I don’t really like them to be honest, but my gravel thing came with 650b Byways and I don’t hate them enough to change them.

My 700c wheels do have all black tyres though.
OOPS
Now with flat bars, flat pedals and a flatter saddle
That Kingdom lefty is nice.
My (old) gravel bike:

And the not black but not tan wall option of 'anthracite wall' tyres 😀

They do dull down over time with mud/wear though.

I do like a skinwall - the mtb really wouldn't suit them though, I know my limits
"SKIN" wall tyres.

Cult Vans tyres:
“SKIN” wall tyres.

Well, looking through the pics some are almost white & others are dark brown... sooooooooo
Impeccable taste @honourablegeorge
Of course, I'm a massive idiot, so I sold mine and now miss it. Tempted by the replacment which is coming in the next few months according to Tim from Fearless.

@snotrag - the few little details of the new one look very tidy. I'd be tempted myself, but only because I'm an idiot who likes shiny new stuff, been absolutely delighted with mine.
WTB Prowler SL. I don’t particularly care for skinwalls, just bought them as I needed some nobblies and they were dirt cheap
skinwallsflint, pah!
