Replacement for a Dart

Hi all.

Well it looks like my trusty Dart on my Cro Mega is on its final ride tomorrow. On inspection I have found that there is a split in the sidewall. It may last a rag around Dalbeattie 7 stanes blue route later or go out in a blaze of glory. Either way, it looks like it needs replacing.

Do any of you fine people know what would be a good modern replacement for it, given that Darts are quite hard to come by? I have to be careful of tyre width as there isn't much clearance on the front forks of a Crown Mega.

I'm not bothered about sidewall colour, although the current one is skin coloured.

Cheers all.
 
Yeah a smoke would be better (I think), I just gave away a dart as they are rubbish (IMO), but have run smokes front and rear on many occasions.
 
Re:

Darts are ace and run IMO much better than Smokes up front. If anyone has a blackwall reissue pair for sale, NOS, then please let me know!
