Cheap source for tires
Petra cycles appears to have the cheapest prices on Schwalbe tires by a significant margin (wire bead Kojaks for $16!). Has anyone ordered tires from them? Are their shipping charges extreme from the U.K.? Is there a 6 week waiting period for items to arrive?
What are other cheap alternatives?

Don't screw around with Petra. I've generally found Calhoun Cycle to be excellent. Strongly recommended.

wow with that shipping price I might as well buy it at the local store for a cheaper price!
then the product is handed to you .
buy where they have to ship, from a retail seller , that goes on top of the retail margin
