Review by SamiamThe Raleigh rides again!by SamiamCycling EnthusiastPortland, OR4 of 5 customers found this review helpful.Pulled my Dad's old Raleigh out of the garage last month. Tires looked like they had leprosy they were so dry-rotted, bummer. Luckily these replacements were cheap and easy from Western Bikeworks. Now I have a working town bike to go get that growler refilled. The black sidewalls are nice, stay looking clean. Pro tip if you are fixing up an old bike like I was, just go ahead and replace the tubes AND the rubber rim-strips (covers the spoke heads) cuz they are going to be rotten too when you get in there.

Review by krmtrainsExcellent product, great service!by krmtrainsCycling EnthusiastTucumcari, New Mexico2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.These tires are perfect for the vintage 1960's and 70's Schwinn bicycles I enjoy fixing up and riding. I've bought nearly a dozen sets in 26 and 27 inch sizes, and they look great, and ride well. They are packed well, and shipped promptly.

Review by TheOrange Ride well in all kinds of weather!by TheOrange Casual CyclistSouth Bend IN1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.Great tires overall. The grips along side the center stripe allow me to turn more sharply in snow and in rain. Don't get clogged up with stuff like my old tires. Seem to wear well too!

Review by NastyHabitsOne the few tires available for older department store bikes of the 70's.by NastyHabitsCycling EnthusiastOakland, CA5 of 5 customers found this review helpful.I had to fix an old rusty bike for a friend of mine who picked it up for free. These tires were my only option. Although a bit heavy, they work quite well and so far no flats.

Review by Sliced BreadFits Raleigh and English 3 speeds as well as other good bikesby Sliced BreadCycling EnthusiastNY2 of 5 customers found this review helpful.The description notes that this fits older department store bikes, however, it was a common size on many good bikes as well. These include Raleigh, Robin Hood, Hercules and others.
I am giving it 3 stars only because I did not order the tires yet, so haven't actually been able to provide a review on the actual tire (tyre).

Review by AnonymousThis replaced 35-year-old deteriorated gumwalls just fine.by AnonymousCasual CyclistFlorida2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Any new tire set was sure to be better than what was still lingering on the rims, so I was pleased. Nothing high-performance was sought -just something fairly smooth and quiet to restore usefulness to a still perfectly good-but-older studentcommuter bike at a price (...including delivery right to the doorstep in a week or so) for markedly less than that offered by any local retailer. But some credit must be given to the old hard-&-crusty original tires -they didn't yield to the pavement much at rated pressure. Every road imperfection could be felt through the original tires, though it seemed to make peddling slightly easier compared to the new softer tires, but I still prefer the new ones for the better overall ride quality -and the confidence in advance of being able to make it back home compared to the previous-&-very-real-threat of walking it all back.
