Exclamation getting trials tires in the US?
it seems that the only tire readily available in the US is the creepy crawler, and i am growing very tired of it's crappiness, i found the try all at renegade, and that is probably what i'll buy, but i'm just wondering if there are any more reasonable sources for buying trials tires in the US.

trialsin is retarded, no way am i paying $98 for an eagle claw... seriously ... what the heck??

Chipping is cheap, seriously. (from what I've heard)

Dont bother. So far from what I've heard, that tire blows harder then the Prevailing Westerlies.

I e-mailed them and they said its b/c the heavy import charges and what-not that they have to pay.

Last I knew they were out but e-mailing again won't hurt!


edit: Unless HBtrials gets the MEC in I'll prob just end up getting the Try-All, 'cause my CC sucks

I actually painted my CC today and it looks cool. If you paint your flat black tire to glossy black it dresses your unicycle up soo much!

Id just buy the MEC from another site, even with shipping, you are going to save 30-40 dollars for what you can get it at over here.

Yeah I have decent tread left but my sidewalls are SHOT! My tire also wore horrible 'cause I never heard of rotating for a long time when I was a total nube

I heard that trialsin changed ownership....so that could be why they are so much now.
