RETRO TYRES ARE ALWAYS COOL! EUROPEAN CLASSIC FILLS MISSING SIZES IN THE OLD SCHOOL (VINTAGE) MARKET
Updated: April 14, 2024
If you got stuck building a bobber because your bike has a 15-inch rear wheel, but you wanted retro tires, you were in trouble until now because no manufacturer offered a 15 or 17-inch rear-wheel solution. Probably due to tradition and the hardcore American old-school where 16-inch is king. So you only had two choices: (1) you bought a 16 or 18-inch rim and re-laced your existing hub, or (2) you gave up on this project and stuck with modern pattern motorcycle tires.
In the market for truly old-school motorcycle tires, there were practically three well-known manufacturers that offered tire types suitable for bobbers or true classic bikes. These are the Avon Safety Mileage MKII, Avalon Speedmaster MKII, Shinko E240 Classic, Shinko E270 Super Classic, and the lesser-known, much more expensive Firestone Coker. All three brands offer tires in the most popular wheel sizes.
But that's over now! A European manufacturer came along and solved the dilemma with old-school inspired modern tires where you can now find rare bobber tire sizes. Strictly in old-school patterns!
All tires are tube-type, made with modern technology and performance, with an old-school design and tread pattern. All tires are manufactured in Europe, compliant with E and DOT standards, and approved for street use in Europe and the United States.
