Knew about this a while back, as the 'StreetRunner' tyres that I was using were "No longer in production, since the business had been taken over and new stocks were unlikely"!

Shame as it was a good tyre.

We will just have to see if RoadRiders, their race equivelents and the sidecar racing tyres go the same way?  :( :(

Good health, Bill
