Unhappy Help!!!! Avon Distanzia Shortage

My rear Distanzia is getting low and I need a new one. I'm trying to fit it in with a service which I keep puting off. Been trying to find a rear 160/60 17 for ages and no luck anywhere. Even M&P haven't had their shipment in. Can anyone tell me where I can get one before the 22nd of November?

badga,

See my report in the wheels & tyres section that tells you about the shortage and production of the distanzias.

Have you tried Busters or M&P at all, or Essential Rubber, or failing that FWR??

Cheers

WB

What bike is that for?

Have you got a smaller rear?

(Can I ask for some more of your fantastic panel designs for the XT please?)

Sorry, meant 160/60 17 for the XTX

I've just spoke to Fran and am now gonna go for the Prielli MT60. Should be fun LOL.... and looks a bit mean ;0)

As for designs ... I'll try to do some ASAP... did you have something in mind?

This might sound daft but I was thinking along the lines of a countryside scene a bit like the backgrounds in the TV series Magic Roundabout since someone said I ought to have a hippy style with flowers etc.
