Hey all
I am looking at the Onza citius skinwall tyres because I think they look so rad, but I was just wondering whether they would look alright on a 2015 Orange giant reign 1??
Scared that they might look out of place and not as retro as I would like...
Glad for peoples comments about there experiences with these tyres and their look?
thanks

Yeh I saw those bikes and the tyres look rad on a black bike...
I have the orange reign with the orange chris king hubs so i thought that mebe the skinwalls wud top off a sik wheelset?
has anyone had experience with the quality of the tyres themselves? Is it just as good as the finish?

It's not a Reign and they're not Onzas but I present to you, gumwalls on an orange bike.

There is no difference in tire quality.

I have the ibex. just have a couple park days on it so far but really liking the amount of grip. I normally tear tires pretty quick if they aren't up to the task so I will report back if I manage to rip them here soon.

Sounds good
Let us know with the long term quality of the tyres as well or anyone else that has had theirs for a while?
