Title: trials tire wanted
Post by: Dale Sonnenschein on April 16, 2017, 09:54:00 PM
anyone know where I can get a 3.25x19 trials tire? I'm finishing up a 72 Suzuki ts250 and I need one for it.

Dale, the 325 x 19 Dunlop Trials Universals are very rare...and very expensive when you do find one.

I've seen folks use the Duro, even on Brit bikes. Looks just fine...

Thanks Richard. I just ordered a shinko. If it's not what I want I'll go with the Duro. I plan on riding this bike quite a bit.
This is what it looked like when I bought it. I'll post a pic this weekend. It's almost done. Changed it to Orange.

How about a 3.00 or 3.25 knobby front tire? I need one for a redo. There are some rear 19in. knobbies but I need one to work on the front.

I got the shinko the other day. It's a 3.50, a little bigger but it's on and looks good. I'll ride this mainly on road. Maybe some trails here and there.
