If you read the previous posts you will find that Nashbar (http://www.nashbar.com/?PID=1114205) has a small selection of them, (you do have to click on each tire to find the sizes available), Specialize (http://www.specialized.com/) carries a couple 27's again you have to click on the tire, and the above post said Walmart.
