Hi all, after another rear Pasela sidewall fail, I'm left with a ton of tires that are too fat for a fendered Quickbeam. What I want is a set of high-quality chubby road tires in the 32-40mm range. Kojaks, JB Greens, narrower MSupremes, etc.

What I have to trade is here: http://www.biketinker.com/

If you'd like to trade money instead of tires, I'm open to offers, and I'll use the $$ to buy tires from Riv, or the list.

Sets of Marathons (47mm), Marathon Supremes (technically fit a QB, not really), Big Apples (2.35), Kenda Kewsts (40mm - fit a fendered QB), IRC Mythos CX-slicks (worn rear, less worn front - fit a fendered QB), and one lone 650B marathon. Also a lone All-Terrainasaurus, but it's on the bike right now.

I'd like to keep the Marathon Supremes, since they're so nice, but they don't allow sand to pass between the chainstay and the tire.

Thanks,

Philip

I have 40-622 marathons on my fendered S1, and they seem perfect.

Philip; why not the Kwests? I'm running those on my S1 and I really like them.

The urge for something new and sexy? Speaking of which, I see Soma has Speedblends in stock...

If anyone needs the single 650B Marathon, they can have it for the cost of shipping.
