For those of you who like colored tires...
Check out SweetskinZ Tires. From 16x1.75 to 26x2.15 or 700x36c they seem to have every practical tire size, and some sweet designs. Reviews are all good on mtbr and other websites.

Well, Catboy has been away from quite some time. I don't think I've really seen him post since about the time I joined the forums.

I work at wal-mart and some of the bikes that we sell have tires like these.

They are cool, I wouldn't buy one, but they're cool.
I have never seen them before on here.

true but a search for sweetskinz brings up quite a lot, but I guess it doesn't matter a ton since its already posted.

I remember Veronique Gregoire of Monotreal had one on her BC wheel, it looked pretty bad ass, and you can get them pretty wide in 20".

Oh, forgive me, I should have endured the agony of wading through the pile of fecal matter to save your precious time and energy.

Something getting posted more than once in RSU?!?! NEVER!

A 700 equates to a 29", right?

Whatever it takes two seconds, while I posted that I did a search myself to see how much fecal matter needed to be gone through and there was barely any. Its making the same thread over and over that makes it so hard to find things with the search function. If it were JC I wouldn't care but it would be nice if RSU could be a bit more clean.

It would have been faster to find one of the other threads than to create this post, I found it while I was making the comment, so it wasn't that deep, I didn't even use anything to narrow my search down which would have put it even closer to the top (I think it was about 7th down).

I agree with you that the tires are pretty cool but I use the search quite a bit and I agree it gets annoying a lot of the time which is why it would be nice if people didn't post double threads.

Anyways sorry for all the bitching, just venting and unfortunately you were the random target, next time I will direct my complaints to a newb instead of a regular forum user.

When did you come back BTW? For a while I was like hey where the hell did Catboy go then boom you are back. There was someone else too that I noticed but I forget their ID, I just remember they had a super tilted saddle.

Yeah somewhat, it may be too skinny for your rim though. I think that 700x35 is still pretty small, closer to 27 or 28. I think the Klaw was like 50 something.

Im not totally sure about a few things to do with Tire/Rim compadabilty. But will the 20 x 2.25 fit on a normal 19" trials rim? like this one http://www.unicycle.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=877. I just ask because they are usually just referred to as 20" wheels and I would love the nightwing with my orange rim...
