Challenge Strada Bianca Anyone ?

Local guy had a pair that fit too big and after 20 miles decided to sell them. I offered 90.00 for the pair, should make for a cushy ride. but no reviews on how long they might last on pavement. Although they are designed for a light gravel tire, the few review say not the best for that..

Granted that site IS 'gravelgrindernews.com'

Don't have a need for those

But the name of this race sure leads me to believe somebody does.

Looks like a slightly wider Parigi Roubaix. My PR's do fine on pavement, go to tires in the winter.

Love my Stradas

25mm, all black. Haven't ridden them yet because of the roads, but they look great!

Those Biancas look similar to Grand Bois Cypres.

One tire had cut, but like zero miles. 20 claimed. The thread in the cut when I bent the tire to open it up was cut as well. Dead center of tire, and the prb belt... but for the coin I passed...
