100 psi tyres

Bought some high pressure tyres from ebay (8.oo UKP!!)for the Raliegh 20.They are called IRC Roadlite EX Skinwall Tyres and it has transformed the bike, I'm at least 2 to 3 MPH faster and really enjoying using the bike. Not as nice as the Reach but still a nice winter bike. Watch out if you are on a mountain bike - your going to have to be fit to keep in front of me!!
