Tipex pen on the raised writing. I always thought it works with some brands like Pirelli but not with others.

*just realised i have Pirellis on now, where the hell is that tipex pen gone*

I've used a tyrepen on the original D220s, a Supercorsa Pro and now Avon Storms and it's come out great!

They're not white-wall tyres, they've just got a stripe on.

This is a white-wall tyre:

hmmm I hate rim tape, and I really should dislike tyre pens, for the same reason 'Chavuntastic'.
But it seems a strangely alluring idea to go out and paint Avon Storm white on my blingggg bike
