After the blow out on my Creo 1 gravel bike with the Gravelking tyre I only had one spare tube on the bike. After getting back home and looking in my garage I realised I only had one other spare tube so time for a new spare tube. This size 700c - 40ish c with a 60mm valve is hard to find locally. When we were at Harrogate I called in past the Specialized Concept store and they had two left!
RRP £7.00
Following on from my disaster with the rear tyre on my Creo 1 the other week I used up the last spare new Gravelking tyre I had. I had a quick google around to find some discounted gravel tyres in 42/43 size and most manufacturers don't do this size now its either 40 or 45c. The clearance would be too tight with 45mm so had a look on CDNE bike sales on Facebook to see what was kicking about locally. I found these which were removed from a bike from new. I got them for £45 inc the p&p so just less than £40 for the tyres from a lovely gentleman in Eaglescliffe. These are now my spare tyres for the Creo 1 gravel bike.
