Vittoria Oscar X Tires

We got a load of tires into the charity shop yesterday and we were sorting them out by size, etc. We ran across these Vittoria Oscar X that had no size markings. We checked the Vittoria site but it is not listed there.

Anyone have any info on this tire? We know it is a 700 tire but looking for the width.

Thanks

They are probbly 18-20mm from about 1988-1992. Are you selling them? did you get any Oscar Seta's in the bunch?

I realize they were thin and guessed they were in the 18-23 mm range, just looking to find specs. Yes we are going to sell them, they do not work for the types of bikes we repair (mostly mountain type bike for our clients).

I will check in the AM for you, yes there were other Vittoria's but I do not recall the names, I will let you know. Many of the batch were thin 700's (18-28) and we rarely see these types of bikes, we run a charity shop geared to helping the homeless and other in dire need for rugged transportation , not road racers

. Selling these excess tires will help us to purchase our needs.

We purchased this batch via ebay from a seller in MI, fortunately I had a pal driving up to MI in a pickup truck that was able to do the pickup and save us the shipping costs, the batch of tires was about 120 pieces.

We will be posting items in the classified section as soon as we get them all sorted out, thank you.

Why not mount it and measure? Having the actual width would be more useful than what the manufacturer claimed anyway.
