yeah, not sure where the idea that the OP would want 853 would come from. I'm sure Reynolds still sells tubing for cost-sensitive applications, and Ceeway is the place to get them if one happens to be in the UK. I recently noted that Joe Bringheli stopped selling the cheapest Deda tubes, which is too bad. But in the end, the tubes really aren't the big expense.

The Bringheli move was a disappointment. But, top tier just works better for marketing.
