I'm at the finishing stages of a couple of rebuilds (not restorations - m ore like "rehabilitations" to clean up & make ridable) and looking for re tro-look (if not NOS/retro) tires in 27" x 1 to 1 1/4 (iSO 630). Continen tal has some in all black (that I'm running on a nice Peugeot UO-8), but I'm having a tough time with basic Google & eBay searches. A couple websi tes listed Michelin World touring tires with tan sidewalls, but all were out of stock. A Hutchinson or Michelin or Wolber (have some of those but in 700c) would be ideal -- I also suppose I could use Kenda's as a last resort but just wouldn't seem the same.
Any one out there have any pointers or stashes? I'm looking for 2 to 3 pa irs (4 to 6 tires).
Thanks!
