As per the headline, keen to get my hands on a pair of these as soon as possible. Anyone know any shops in London (ideally SW) where I can get a pair?
Thanks

    Buy them online...
    any reason for the Pasela? You know they don't fit a modern road bike, don't you?

    I want 27 inch tyres for an old road bike I bought as the tyres are perished. I like the tan sidewalls.

    Tried to force a pair of 700c gp4000s on it and no luck (not that surprisingly!)

    I need them urgently so ideally want to pick up in London

    I believe you can get them in 700c though of course the OP wanted 27 anyway. They are nice though the tread picks up mud a bit.

    Absolutely you can buy then in 700c. I have them on my tourer. Great tyres.

    Spa cycles usually have them

    BTW, it's not about the tyres throwing mud up - more that you pick those tyres partly for the gumwall looks but as soon as you go through anywhere muddy, the mud sticks and dries in the tiny tread pockets and remains there forever more!

    I've got cream coloured PAnaracer Paselas on my tourer and even after quite a few hundred miles they still look good.

    I did say that it depends on whether or not you've ridden them through mud and besides, what colour is dry mud usually and on that basis is it most likely to show up against black or cream coloured rubber?! :wink:
