New Coker offroad tyre!
Apologies if this has been posted here already, but Coker have a new offroad tyre. Its marginally wider than other 36" tyres by 1/8", but the coolest thing about it is its tread pattern which consists entirely of embossed 'Coker' text. The word 'Coker' will be written in the mud in mirror-writing and normal writing wherever you go. I've always thought that it would be a cool if a tyre company did this, shameless self-promotion though it is. I wonder how much it weighs....

It doesn't look the best tread pattern for off-road and I don't trust tire measurements written on side of tires. It was due out in August but I don't think it is available for sale yet, no one on the forum has bought one as far as I know jim -- Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jim's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9416 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73341 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

It's a good thing they have it spelled in both directions. Otherwise pumped at a high enough pressure it would say KKK... -- phlegm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ phlegm's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8382 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73341 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I'd be more convinced if their name was XXX Yeah, buying any black rubber stuff with XXX on it is always more satisfying I'd have to agree though that whilst having the name on the tread is pretty cool, I don't see it being the best idea for an off-road tyre. It looks like approx 85% of the tread is full height (or 15% is cut away, depending on your point of view). Most decent off-road tyres are more like 50/50 STM -- semach.the.monkey ------------------------------------------------------------------------ semach.the.monkey's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12078 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73341 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Well for those of us who ride in the city (and other places where this danger exists), it looks like that tire would be really annoying to have to scrape and clean - with all those nooks and crannies - when you ride over a land mine (of the type produced by canines)... -- HardcoreCokerRider "You guys on your uni's are like the ******* step child that's locked away in the basement and comes out and kicks everyone's ass" - Ray ------------------------------------------------------------------------ HardcoreCokerRider's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/8529 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/73341 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
