Okada Tyres

[Alan Cun]

Hello All, Had a request from a NZ member in regards to fitting 26x3 Okada  Tyres to 25 inch rims fitted to EW and CW standard rims. I did this many years ago to my bikes and found there was enough stretch fitting these tyres to fit successfully on the beaded edge rim when inflated. I did find out from a mate that to get about 1000 miles from these tyres was the limit. I dont think they are now available. The bikes I prefer to ride now are 1928 on wards and on well  based tyres.
regards Alan
