Picked up a bike recently that came with these tires. Cool chain tread with awesome checkered whitewalls. Too bad they're so hard I'd chip a tooth on them. Still, almost seems like a sin to cut them off...

Very rare! I had a pair about 20 years ago. I should have kept them.

Thought they looked familiar. A WW version of the same tires Scott's Imperial is pictured with. So Cool! Wish they could be repopped

I have a few pair of the black walls. The white walls are much harder to find.

Ha..Didn't know that. I have a set on my 1938 monark for years still good condition. What were they originally on.
