I have just bought a second hand Raleigh 'ladies' bike for my daughter and want to put some tuff tyres on it. I have used Armadillos on my road bike for years and have never had a puncture, changing them every few thousand miles. I was told by LBS that I can't put the same tyres on 27in wheels.
Can someone recomend a tyre that is just as good to fit 27in wheels? Sean.

I've had good results with Hutchinson Blue Line Kevlar. They are cheap, available in 27", fairly fast and I have worn out several sets without a single puncture.
