Eric, Do you recall what you were charged for postage? Was just on the GB site and ordering direct seems convenient. IanA Alberta Canada -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

+1 on ordering directly from GB. Even with shipping, their prices are substantially lower than purchasing from a US-based vendor. The last two GB tires I bought online came directly from them. --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com Insta: @CampyOnlyGuy YouTube: YouTube.com/CampyOnlyGuy > On Jun

I've long enjoyed the suppleness of these tires, but they seem not to have been available in the U.S. now for some years; I think they can still be obtained outside the U.S.. Any recommendations for near-equivalents? (Labeled as 700 x 30, but seem to measure out closer to 32). Thanks in
