I really want a pair, but could only find this one for now.
 
These are discontinued by Schwalbe. New version coming out 2mm wider in November.
 
Not so easy to find online now. 3 places are out of them, when their sites said they had them.
 
Riv had one left in stock, so I snarfed it up today.
 
 
C'mon Riv, I know you guys must have a cache of them around for the builds. Sell me another!! Please?!?!?!?

An excellent price,too.
I left a message with them to verify they are in stock.
Anyone have experience buying from them?

run far away.  They will happily take your money, then it will be up to you to get it back.

No relation or experience with this site. Just that it turned up the other day when I was listing my Schwalbe 650B tires for sale here.

any time you want to know about an online vendor. in google search type their name then better business bureau.  This means something.

If they have a 39mm set coming out in November can't you just wait a month? I am sure the bleriot can run 39s,even with fenders.

Yes, I will just wait until Riv has the new ones.
Still waiting to get the Bleriot bac from the shop, too.

I ran Hetres on my Saluki, and a friend of mine who is on this list uses
Hetres on her Bleriot, both with fenders.

"I have never found them lacking" damn autocorrect. Hetres rock!

Where do you all get your Hetres?
Anyplace selling for less than $120/pair?
I would like to try them sometime, or the Cyprii.

Got mine at long leaf. They do pop up used from time to time on the list and ebay/CL.

UPDATE: Non-score.
 
Turns out they are out of stock, even though it was supposed to be in stock. Oh well. I'll wait until the 44-584 versions come out soon and buy them from Riv then.
Trying to cancel the order on my account there for the one 52-584, but no way to do it, and no response when I email requested it several days ago.
May be a good thing if one happens to float back in stock one day.

Stans Tubeless and Hetres...come on and try it first so I can see if I can add this to my queue of winter projects!
