Cheap, fast tyres??

wetherbob

i'm after a cheap tyre that will get me around town and along towpaths in the dry reasonably fast, with enough grip to stop me becoming a roadie... i'd like to pay less than £15 each... is this possible?

i have been looking at these but would appreciate other suggestions...

...I've done 12 months worth of 'xc' trails on them too. Anyone who says they are only suited to 'light off road' is talking bollocks (mainly because the outside edges do the job and dig in).

Though their primary use is a hard wearing muncher of poor roads and poorer road conditions. They're excellent road rollers and the cornering grip in the wet (and dry) is like sh!t to a blanket. The only downside is they are on the heavy side (if they did a 550g folding protection version I'd be on them like flies on doo) but if you can live with that (and you'll probably have to in this price bracket) then they fit the bill ++

Also, the 1.9, they're best all round bet if you have to do a lot of bridleway / road.
