Anyone have a good source for 28-451 (20" x 1-1/8) Shwalbe Stelvio tires, either in the US or with reasonable shipping rates to the US? Price to beat would be $40/tire + s&h

The Stelvio is now called Durano - Schwalbe was apparently having to pay royalties to use the Stelvio name.
Calhoun has the Durano in 451 for just a hair under $40..

Does Moto Guzzi (http://www.webbikeworld.com/Moto-Guzzi-motorcycles/stelvio/) own the trademark name or does the software company (http://www.stelvio.com/) with the same name? Just curious.
