...and they would certainly be cheap shite then.


Personally, on push bikes, I use heavy duty tubes and puncture resistant tyres to save a lot of walking.

An excellent link here https://www.google.co.uk :)

The 32x622 Vredsteins on my bike were £32 each, half the price of tyres on the Omega! And there was a lot more to decide what to fit, as I wanted a bigger tyre than the 28s that were original.
