26x2.35 big bens??

I can't seem to find these anywhere on their own, but i know some bikes come with them. I can find the 26x2.35 big apples but not big bens. It's not a huge difference, but the big bens have a grippyer texture which I think would be nice, at least for a while. They come on a couple of xtracycles where I work so I know they exist (or at least they did at some point).

Used to be Portland pdx, now Eugene. The bike shop where I work can't find them and I can't find any mention of them online, except for a few blog posts. I guess I was just wondering how they could come stock on some of our bikes but seem to be ghosts otherwise.

Edit: Good call on searching for 559-60 though, I was at least able to find a site that said they're not making them anymore :-(

good, since this is not the home shopping network to find things for you, though so many act like it is.

My LBS stocks schwalbe tires , But Its not My shop & I read this forum at Home .

Might drop by, on My way to the Bar
