White porcs, Green Wildgrippers, Red Z max, Butterscotch Psychos, 'Magic' smoke/dart and Ummagummas...

Nothing else is acceptable, and the above still need to suit the bike.
 
Re:

Kenda k-829 does everything I need. Best tyre I have ever used. A lot depends on where you live. The Kenda is great on road and tracks, pretty good on wet surfaces and OK in snow. Genuine decent tyre.
 
Here's a 'retro' pic of a bike of mine

I'm sure they are a decent tyre, no problems there... But when has retrobike ever worried about how well something works?

;)
 
Interested to hear from the users of the Kenda tyres, what the weight is like. Bikester lists them as over a kg. Is that right? Anyone weighed one?
 
Any excuse

We mixed the paint for my Alves to match a pair of wildgrippers many moons ago! :facepalm:

Beautiful! So why the facepalm?
Why stop there? How about fork arch and lowers? Stem and bars? Pedal cages?
How much is too much?
 
Normally not a fan of coloured tires but quite liking these on the Al-mega I am currently building. From then on however it's tan wall or all black for me.
