Damn right. I won’t put anything else on my summer bike. Observe.

Been a fan for a long time – as this is Singletrack, I will keep it dirty…

Just the thread! I’d like some for my Croix de Fer, any 700c recommendations?

Not actually my wheels/tyres but it is my bike!

Very marmite – some work, some don’t, I’d rather not risk it….

Go on then, which ones don’t work?

I think that the ones that work best are the ones where everything else on the bike is a very different colour to the sidewall

Well I’m bored of trying to link to an image on imgr… If anyone can help…

None of them ^ work. Gopping.

I think silver rims and a light coloured bike are the only way you can make them look decent

Bikebouy, here you go:

You were trying to link straight from the imgur gallery, you need the link ending in the file extension (.jpg) for it to work properly.

Ohh, cheers.

Very much appreciated 😀

Strada Biancas are such awesome tyres – to ride as well as look at! Also available in black for you Houns….

Or go one better in the volume stakes and try the Compass Barlow Pass 38 if you have the room!

Yeah, sorry mostly make a bike look like a BSO imho

Yep!

Love Tan walls, my old Inbred and my wifes trek Fuel

was expecting tires with black sidewalls, and these arrived in stead, they’ve grown on me

Love skinwalls on carbon rims. Got some turbo cottons for my new 404’s. Shall pop them on later for a photoshoot 🙂

Never thought I’d say it out loud but they do look good on some bikes.

Go on then, which ones don’t work?

The OP’s unfortunately; it’d look a lot better with black. They look good on some of the pics above mind.

it’d look a lot better with black

It didn’t.

IMO, obviously. It also rides sooooo much better with these on;

And, on a retro note;

betty the yeti looking sweet in her skinwalls:

Hoping maxxis release a few more for 29er apart from the Ardent, I’ve seen Minions in skinwall online but not seen them for sale

Pics is it:

Now sadly taken off as they were useless in anything other than dust.

The P20 always looked better on skinwalls. Dart 2.2 SC and Z-Max 2.35 8)

Has anyone got modern skinwalls to run tubeless?

Go on then…

Unfortunately just for show now as the rear one delaminated & I prefer tubeless.

What mudguards on your first pic OP?

Can’t seem to open a thread these days without seeing a photo of CFH’s Diverge. Is sort of growing on me though, even with the gobbler.

Think the guards are Specialized ones.

Turbo cottons on my 404’s… nice.

Dirtyrider, lovely bike there but the valve caps have to go!

They are indeed the Spesh ones. Am going to fashion a flap for the front one, as it’s a little short.

Turbo Cottons are delicious.
