Wilesco Old Smokey Front Roller Tyre

Hi,

I was thinking about fitting rubber tyres to my Old Smokey, but cant find anything that will fit the front roller. I think that it would probably have to have a split in the rubber as then it would turn smoother.

I would welcome your thoughts and suggestions.

Thanks

Maybe you can find RC car slicks with the right diameter.

Buy the material and make your own.

Les has the best proposition I think

3mm might be a bit too thick. What's the gap between the roll and the fork?
