Forte Gotham tire = Panaracer Crosstown = $10 currently

If anyone needs Marathon type tires without the marathon price for
their urban or touring steed, Performance has these on sale now for
$10. They are the Panaracers rebranded for a third of the price. 26"
and 700x35, the latter being a stately 700g of urban protection.

Can't find them on site, can you post a link?

I am surprised a tire was named after a small town in Wisconsin:

I picked up a pair of these this afternoon, be warned that although
the pic on the site depicts a reflective sidewall, it's not mentioned
in the product description, and the ones I got did not have one.

Still, ten bucks! Nine, after I use my Team Performance points this
spring.

Thanks for the tip, LO!

No problem! Give us a post about how they roll. Indeed, no reflective
sidewall on these--that's just the rim in the pic.

It really bugs me when people mispronounce Gotham with a "short o".

I used to ride that area in the 1980's on a Peugeot P-8 [1]. Forgot the
name of the shop it came from, but it had a yellow cow on bicycle wheels
as a logo.

[1] Which I sadly outgrew (literally).
