    i got my tyre today, its available through any dealer selling Giant
    Bycycles for a little over $25 bucks. mine was $25.95

    its a fatty alright and its for the standard 20" rim size NOT the Trialz
    19" inch size.

    the sidewalls are thinner than a trialz tire but i think it would be
    realy good for a street uni and since its bigger there wont be those
    pedal strikes all the time. it would also get going faster for longer
    stair sets i would guess.

    right now im using it on my BC (yes my camera is still a POS)

    this tyre will not fit in most regular 20" frames without some sort of
    modification, it will not fit in my Torker DX...

    you could use a 24" frame or do some darn good research for a 20 inch
    that has a high crown.

    the roll out on this tyre is a little over 66 inches. how much more is
    that from a 19x3 trails tyre?

    A Monty 19x2.5" is 1620mm or about 63 1/3" without the compression from
    a rider.

    What is the width of these Tire? Is it a real 3 inch Tire or is this
    tire equal to a 2.5 ? You know, for example there are many 24 x 3 inch
    tires, but the gazz is the fattest...

    You mean 7cm. 70cm is about 27 1/2 inches.
