Wow! Thanks for sharing, stupid deals on Specialized tires. But . . . seem to start at 33mm in 700c, which is 1mm bigger than fits on any bike I own
Walking over to tell me neighbor who needs some 29" for a Specialized full squish

Correct. And those were definitely the ones I chose.
I have never used Specialized tires, but at these prices, nice to have on reserve.

Very timely PSA for me. I run the Vittoria Diamante Pro Radiale III on my dirty pavement bike and had the center of the tread come completely apart this past Monday. Fortunately I wasn't bombing down a hill when it happened.
Anyway, I grabbed a pair of Roubaix Pros on this sale for $16.97 each. I don't know that they'll like dirty pavement any more than the Vittorias but figured I'd give it a go at this price.

Thanks, I ordered some for the co-op. I previously bought some of the Trigger Sport 38s on clearance elsewhere and they seem like decent tires (don't know about durability yet).

Those were the best I have ever done until this one…. still have the receipt! The second big order was not quite as good because they no longer had Lifeline tires.
Lifeline tires, their brand were 5-8.00 each (they had commuter worthy tires)…Vittoria Rubino were 13, Zaffiro were 9. Tubes were 1.99, rim tape was like .50
Love that place but they don’t ship to the US at times anymore.

Performance still has some basic 700 tubes on clearance. Takes quite a few of them to get free shipping though.

Matching tires! These are nothing fancy, but great, meaty profile. Seems like a good all-rounder. My favorite tires on this build, so far, have been Fat Franks, but those cost more than $5!
