Avon Safety Mileage Mk II Tires
Classic block thread series for classic bikes from Avon. The perfect choice for Bobbers, sixties styled choppers or restoration jobs.

Tire Valve Fishing Tool
Fumbling the tube valve through its hole in the wheel rim can be a real pain. This smart tool makes the job a lot easier with its 21 cm cable and "fishing hook". Just route the cable through the rim hole and attach its threaded tip to the valve core. Now you can pull the core through the rim without pinching your fingers or damaging the threads. With valve remover inside the handle.

Coker Firestone Deluxe Tires
Another classic, revived by the Coker Company, USA. Firestone tires were a common brand in the good old times. Here are perfect reproductions of the famous Deluxe treads. With Firestone logo.

Hammer Sycle Wheel Covers
Pictures of the good old days, i.e. the Forties and the Fifties, often show bikes which sport so-called wheel covers. These were very popular accessories in their days, because they gave the wheels a completely different appearance. So if you really want to show off and stand out with your classic bike, here’s your hot ticket. These wheel covers are exact reproductions of the period parts, hand-made from industrial finish stainless steel which allows you to polish, chrome or paint them. They fit 16” wheels with star hubs →1966 or 1967-1972 hubs and come with the correct small parts. Slight modification of axle spacers may be necessary.
