I agree with wayne. I have been buying reproduction Schwinn tires from bicyclebones aka Dan and other repop parts as well for about 2 years now. Everything he sells is superb in quality. I've got 2 sliks, a gripper slik, set of fastback tires, whitewall 26 1 3/4, black 26 1 3/4, a front superior krate tire, whitewall Schwinn stingray front tire, and a black front stingray tire. All of these tires I find are made to the exact specifications of the originals. They look and feel of great quality and feel much thicker than any tire I have bought in a store such as a kenda. If you buy from him you will not be sorry and for his prices I will keep going back and buy just from him
