I have one of those @52telecaster, and I love it just as much as a B17, even though the shapes are different.

They aren't C&V in fact they are the latest thing out from Continental but I thought my Purple Haze Ironman deserved them. I got a pair of 25 mm GP 5000 clincher tires in today and immediately mounted them. Easiest tires I have ever mounted. I only rode them 20 miles but I am impressed! It was windy and my average speed was up there with my best wind less days. The ride is good and they cornered a lot better than I am brave enough to test.

Just needs spokes now. These will get laced to a pair of 1055 Shimano hubs. Tires are undecided still.

The paint is roached but the chrome is A1. With a shorter stem it will even fit me.

I tried a pair of the GP 5000 Continental clinchers and am impressed. The graphics are not gaudy and they roll better than anything else I have rode on. The smallest they offer right now is a 25 mm. If that would work for you give them a try.

Not particularly C+V, but will go on one if need or want comes to pass.

Couldn't resist, it was a smokin deal.

Synergy rims and deore hubs with double butted spokes. Unfortunatley the rear hub is 135. I will relace to a 126 hub and get started on a cool set of wheels for either my 912 or my lemans mixte. Choices... . Oh yeah, came with a nearly new set of rock and road tires. Price? 40 00 total.
Actually this came from the coop. This will help me do a 650b conversion!
