SealSkinz Thin Ankle Length Socks AW13
SealSkinz Thin Ankle Length Socks AW13
A thin, lightweight ankle length waterproof sock with an improved design and better fit. A fine merino wool lining gives the socks a soft feel and great moisture wicking with a breathable waterproof membrane for protection and dryness.

"I wanted something for an early season triathlon, so I could go into T2 and still feel my feet.
Due to the weather I'd previously been wearing waterproof overshoes for cycling.
I was doubtful this would do the job but very pleased to say I was wrong.
Feet were fine on a frosty morning.
They feel a bit strange and be careful on the sizing."
Pros: High Quality, Rugged, Lightweight

"Wanted some semi slicks for commuting. These were the best vlaue and from a well known name. Easy to fit, very fast on the tarmac and very quiet. I couldnt believe the difference between these and the knobblies. Also seem OK on trails, canal paths and river banks.
No complaints and do a great job."
Pros: Great Value, High Quality, Rugged, Versatile

What would be a suitable inner tube?

I'm new to mountain biking and have had these tyres recommended to me as a good road tyre which will also suit some light off roading.

Could anyone recommend a suitable inner tube for this tyre or does it not matter that much?

Cheers!
I changed to these from my knobblies and left the original inner tubes in. No problems. Dont see any point in spending any more money.

Tyre Direction

I have just recieved a pair of Continental Double Fighter tyres and I am really pleased with them!
Just one thing when fitting the tyres I presume the front tyre has the front directional arrow facing to the front of the bike!
With the rear does the front arrow face the front or the rear arrow face the front??
I just got some of these tyres and looking at the tread I cant see as it will make any difference.
I assumed the arrow was for the direction of travel.
