I have over 5K of bikes sat in my kitchen, so why do i baulk at paying £50+ for a set of tyres for these expensive bikes?
On my playbike i'm currently using a cheap, wire beaded Continental Gravity/Vertical combo because i can't bring myself to shell out for some 'decent' tyres.
Am i alone in this?
I'm a wee bit similar tbh, espcially as my last pair of tyres lasted such a very short time, and weren't cheap.

I've used expensive ones but my favourites are all cheap... Ideal really!
I still lean towards Conti Verts but folding ones are hard to find now. Had a set of MK's butthey wore down very fast & scared me rigid at Whinlatter in the rain - although to be fair, i doubt any tyre works on slick, wet slate!
