Major Tire Help Needed!!!!

[jpearl]

AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I'm out riding Sunday. 32 farenheit, 3 inches of slushy snow on the ground, basically a nice day for a ride. As I'm coming home, I turn off the sidewalk to the path up to my building and POP! I slash my tire on a metal strip. The slash went through the whole tire because I was running them low for the snow.

Here's the real sucky part:
The tire was a Ritchey Speedmax pro 30cc with a folding kevlar bead. I go to my LBS for a new one and lo and behold - THEY'RE DISCONTINUED :(

Man, I love these tires, and now it seems they're all gone. Does anyone know where I can find one, maybe your LBS has one laying around. If so, I would super appreciate it if you could find a brand new one for me to purchase.

Please help a fellow 'crosser out. I'll be in the corner weeping until then. Thanks.

WHAT!!! Discontinued! Oh man. This marks a bad day for cross. That's a really good tire. Time to stock up on a pair or two.

Yeah, Ebay. Try there first. Personally I didn't really like the Speedmax's for racing. They were cheap, don't get me wrong, but the performance was mediocre. I switched to the Vitoria clinchers and was really happy with those.

Is 32 or 35 ok? I got a pair of 32s at Performance for cheap. (http://www.performancebike.com/shop/profile.cfm?SKU=21970&subcategory_ID=5420)

Try a google search for "Ritchey Speedmax Pro"

Are the Speedmax Pro sized pretty accurately? I ride in pretty rocky terrain and like a big tire, I'm running 38mm WTB Interwolfs right now. I'm pretty happy with them but would like a little faster tire for mostly gravel with some pavement type rides. Think I'll try the 35mm Speedmax if they really are about 35mm. TIA!
