Looking to buy some later today, but can't find them well on the phone. Any pointers for Black Chili 2.2's?
TIA
They're £15 on eBay for the wire bead non-black chillis. Having used the top of the line ones and these, I'm not sure why you would pay the extra cash for the BCs. I couldn't tell the difference at all.
I'm sure Next Day Tyres used to do them too
35 Euro

Ribble are doing BC 2.2 UST RQ for £40
what are the new mountain kings like (2.2 bc)
Hibike.de is 5 euros cheaper than bike components due to lower shipping costs.I've bought from them,delivery took 3 days IIRC.

Speaking of Continental tyres... I was in Halfords the other week and noticed they had a few folding contis in there. Tucked in with the standard folders was an X-King Protection/Black chilli/whathaveyou. Don't think it's usually stocked as standard so it was priced the same as all the others. Cost me 20 something quid, which wasn't bad.
So keep your eyes peeled.
I've never tried the black chili version but the normal compound one's are lethal on wet rock, the way the outside knobblies are zigzagged doesn't help either...buy some Maxxis instead.
