Cool in the extreme mate

Think I might do the same on my next pair

What did the tyres cost you and did you need 2 or was 1 enough

Thanks Toddy

I'll keep that in mind for the next time

I spent last night sewing up a set of those iridecent blue ones that I had on my last set and they do look pretty as they match the cuffs and the band in the middle

with one normal bike tyre you can cover both springs.

Most people go for a big mountain bike tyre (the bigger the better a 2.4 is probably best )

The spring is 32" so a 24" tyre will be 24x3ish which is 72" so a 24" will do both springs with ease
