I took a look at the Blockleys at Race Retro, nice tyre. I think they are more an option instead of A008's rather than A032. A good rain tyre.

About £15 more than Blockleys.

First post on this thread says £80.00 or thereabouts.

I wonder if they will come with a 1000 mile money back offer if you don't like them :)

Thanks Iain. Seeing as I fitted Blockleys recently it'll be some time before I need replacements but good to see another affordable option.
