Tyres (again)

Just fitted Avon Spirit ST's along with Street Twin cast wheels to my 2018 T100 and it has totally and completely transformed the bike.

You can fit tubes to tubeless tyres if you look at your original (awful) Phantoms they are marked up as tubeless. If you get shot of those spoked wheels its a triple win with a big saving in unsprung weight, easier puncture repair, better tyres. Believe me, the improvement is truly astounding. This is how the bike should have left the factory.

P.S. Got the original wheels/tyres up for sale. Only done 1,000 miles.

 

That's a shame as the ST wheels were a straight swap to the T100 and have made a huge difference. Each to his own, there will be someone who wants my originals for their ST as they prefer the look.

I've got Avon 3D on my Street Twin, and very happy with them. If they do tubeless then they are worth a punt imo.

 

I have always chose Avon's aswel made in this country so tested here and I have found them long lasting and holding good to excellent.

That's something that had crossed my mind to do. I have a 2018 T100 also and would be interested in doing this. I take it the wheels are dealer supplied? Would you mind if I asked how much they are?? I also wouldn't mind seeing a photo of your bike

 

The wheels were bought on ebay, tyres were £250 including wheel change, bike totally transformed plus greatly improved peace of mind.

That looks good! I notice the wheels don't have the red stripe on that I've noticed on some. I guess it could be tape so is easy to remove.Thanks for putting a picture up. I'm also thinking of a top box so that's good to see.
