Default Ebay tyre amused me...

I just bought this:



Barely used Diablo Corsa, for a pound But that's not what amused me, I'm just being smug about it. I asked the seller, "Why are you selling?" "I'm getting Supercorsa Pros instead, these are great tyres for average riders but the way I ride I need the best."

LOOK AT THE CHICKEN STRIPS ON IT! I assume "The way he rides" is cackhandedly jamming on the brakes in a straight line...

Anyway. It's saturday and I'm bored

Mate

Even if the tyre is s***, at least you can use it as a plant pot. Cheaper that B&Q.

Ride safe.

Stradders.
