Brompton 2010 Tyres

So ... it's now 2010, a whole new decade.

It's January - so time to start getting fitter, and what better way than a daily commute by Brompton bike.

There are in fact 3 tyres being offered as standard on the Brompton folding bike range from the beginning of this year - as follows:

Brompton kevlar (the one with the green label) with a RRP of £19 (a reduction from last year presumably due to the fact the old yellow standard tyre is no longer available)

Schwalbe Marathon - a heavier duty (and heavier - a pair will add just over 370 grammes to your ride weight) tyre with a RRP of £24.50

Schwalbe Kojak - a lighter (saving 232 grammes if you have a pair), racing slick tyre with a kevlar bead meaning it can be folded (so takes less storage space - so you could keep a spare in the desk at work .... just in case) with a RRP of £27.25

So get on, push yourself and have an healthy and happy 2010.
