We have some 1.25" gray in stock. Just go to our web site home page>parts for sale>tires. I do have a couple of sections of smaller stuff if you need it. We have put the tiring on a couple of different wheels and have a modern machine as well as an old original machine to install the wire. Pretty neat stuff. Jeff Archer First Flight Bicycles 216 S.
