    The box of my Spesh 700 x 20-28C tube also says 27 x 3/4"-1 1/8", so I would have thought that your 700 x 28-35C would be fine.

    I have a pair of brand new 27" Continental tyres at my parents' house. PM me if you're interested.

    Hmmm,
    sourcing good 27" tyres used to be a hobby, now I'm lucky enough to have 26"x1&3/4" rims and the shop I work for stocks them! BD 590, you'll be after BD 630. If only they sold Sturmey AW clutches and planet pinions...

    Don't worry about tubes, they stretch well :)
