So as I am probobley looked on as old school with 26" wheels it's starting to get a crap when looking for new tyres , how long do you think it will be before they stop producing the new up to date tyres and all you can get is the lower level tyres .

Personally it is going to be tuff for me to upgrade the bike to 27.5 or 29 is my time running out

Just from looking on the stands at at the cycle show and generally looking at crc and places like that I hope they still produce as I love my current Magic Mary and Ardent combo

It was just a queestion on my mind so I thought I would put it out there

All safe....

Problem with looking on websites is its still just a shop, all you have to do is ask and get them to add one to the next order or to get some in for you. Much easier to do in person than with CRC.

I know now they are available my pondering are for how long as it seems the 26" wheel will soon be a minority I have emailed maxxis and schwalbe asking them what they have planned .

I am most likely over thinking it and have no reason to worry
