I recently got a 70s-era Peugeot NS folding bike in cool orange. The trouble is, one of the original tires (with nice white sidewalls) is totally cracked and I need a replacement.
The tire size is 550A (490mm), which seems tough to find. The only merchants I found on the intertubes are Harris Cyclery and Bike World USA and their tires wouldn't look super nice on this lil bike.
Does anyone know where else one could find tires in this size? Especially NOS in decent shape ...
If you know of any places in Canada, you get extra cool points!
