Slimmer profile 27 inch tyres wanted

[Toecutter]

I am looking for some decent 27 x 1 1/8 tyres being slimmer in profile than the commonly available 27 x 1 1/4 which look like they belong on the undercarriage of a Lancaster bomber rather than my H E Green racer.

I have a couple of 1 1/8 tyres which are branded Michelin Select but these are no longer available.

Any help would be welcome.

With thanks
Shaun

Re:

These look nice but not cheap.

Thanks for your observations and help on this one chaps,

I've also clocked some similar offerings from Germany for all black tyres.

Thread can be considered closed.

Panaracer do this size .St Johns st cycles stock them. Not cheap but top qaulity tyres IMHO.

....down in Bridgwater. Many thanks. I see they also stock 27 x 1 Panaracers, as you say they're not cheap but very good quality.

Cheers
