Ah, right. Can't help you there then. You're right, they do seem to have discontinued them.

Jarv, I used to use these. IMO they were good. They were discontinued a long time ago now, probably over 5 years.

Always found them a good tyre, had a set fitted to a smallframe Vespa and large auto and they coped well in all conditions. Paul

Only places I can find them online is in the US, but then they always were a few years behind

cheers all. think I will go with an alternative.
I guess any new ones will still be quite old, which is not always ideal if they haven't been stored well
