***FOUND*** Cult X Vans 26" tires

[RustyGold]

Desperately seeking Cult X Vans 26" tires in (preferably) whitewall with red stripe...

...or just red stripe...

I've scoured the net without luck. Help me, RRB, you're my only hope!

Thanks SwissGuy...I sent an inquiry to parano-garage as to shipping since the US isn't on there list for places to ship to (though Mexico is ). SourceBMX only has one red stripe in stock .

We'll see...still looking!

...the response, 'sorry we don't ship overseas'...uh, but they ship to Mexico? From Germany...pretty sure its the same seas between us .

Some time ago I had the opposite problem I needed something for work from a shop in the U.S. with no shipping option to germany, so I organized a local pickup by UPS. The company only had to pack the goods and stick on the label I sent them. It worked fine but the shipping (for two giant black teddy bears ) was twice the price of the items...
Maybe that could be an option.
Else I would try to search on various local google site in the according language (translate.google.com helps a lot) for example like this:

It seems like I remember that @Smoopy's sells these.

They have them at Sutter street cruisers, plain and red stripe
Here:

and here

If you want the white walls will be worth contacting them. Mark D there may be able to order them in for you or have a set not listed online.

happy hunting.

If you end up with no other options, you could let them send the tyres to my place and I forward them to you.

Yep...I'm just about to pull the trigger. I'm just choking on the $50/tire for my '2nd option'...just noticed a discount code, however, so that helps

[RustyGold]

Never mind...the prices are high, the shipping ridiculous, and then a 'handling' fee over that. I can't do business that way. I might have done two out of three of those, but the trifecta kills it for me

Thanks for the offer...I ran the numbers, and the euro is just too strong right now.

I think one of my local shops carries them, not sure about the red pinstripe version but I will check today and let you know...

 

[RustyGold]

Thanks John! I'm about to go with the black ones, but it will (with the associated color changes) really change the look I was going for. I found a good price at Modernbike with cheap shipping (and no added handling fee)...but, I'll hold off until I hear what you find

Thanks again!
Jason

 

[irideiam]

He doesn't have them in stock.

 

[RustyGold]

Thanks for checking.

I guess the moral of the story is that if you see a tire that you 'may want'...you better buy it then, not wait until you 'need'.

[irideiam]

Ya, catch 22. I ask if he could order the white wall/red stripe and he said they are not available, all out of stock.

 

[RustyGold]

I have a feeling the business model is to do a run at an amount that they know there is a profit, and then sell them til they're gone, counting on the 'new & cool' factor...and then move to the next 'new & cool' idea and shelve the no longer 'new & cool' product
