does anyone know of any companies that make gum rubber colored tires? there is a white frame on FGG that has some... i will dig it up and post the link a little later, but wanted to ask off the bat.

I believe Conti makes some.
Have you seen the NASA bike on FGG? It is my favourite bike, bar none. I wish it had a close-up of the nip's though.

i just looked up the bike on FGG and it has changed to a windsor for some reason - used to be a roberts? anyways, they were vredestein fortezza track tubulars, but i wanted to see if there were any clinchers out there.

Kenda makes similar tires, they are called KONCPET, I had them on my bike at some time, I paid like 10$ for set...
