406 Stelvios

[Dave Larrington]

BRITONS might like to know that the New! IMPROVED!! folding 406 Schwalbe Stelvios are available
in this country, and that Bikefix's Darth Stuart, to name but one, will have some in stock a
week today.

The bad news is that they are twice the price of the old ones, thus going from "something of a
bargain" to "get some cheap BMX knobblies and a Stanley knife instead". Bah!

Ooo are the Britons?

Could you cough up an amount btw? Just GBP as most here should be able to convert it to desired
currency. These are the armaduro Stelvios? Nonfolder available?

Well, we all are. We are all Britons, and I am your king (exit, pursued by the Python Police).

Yes and no respectively :-( At least, not according to Fisher's web site.

Sheez. Do they come with a complimentary prostitute or are we financing the debaucheries of the
Schwalbe boardmembers?

Typical. I just decided that I rather like mine. But I guess disliking them won't be all
that hard now.

Cheers Mikael

Manufacturer's Descent Into The Abyss!" Seems that ALL the folding tyres are the same price,
irrespective of size. Gits.

William. I shall probably invest in one for racing and perhaps one as a spare, and look for
something cheaper for road use.

To be fair that may merely reflect the cost of materials being insignificant as a proportion of
total manufacturing costs.

I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.

I thought that had been definitively settled a long time ago. Take two coconut halves and see me in
