    Does anyone have experience with the Michelin TB 15 tire?

    I have been using them for years, road holding is excellent, and they have a pretty good wear rate as well. I buy mine from longstone tyres in the UK, fast free shipping and no VAT.

    I recently switched to '15s and the TB's on my RSR clone. Very happy so far after two seasons.

    Fully agree, cool vintage looking tires. Only drawback: they tend to pick up gravel when hot (but then all soft tires probably do)

    TB 5 or 15's are under rated tires here in the US. Not inexpensive, but if you want vintage and they have your size, they can't be beat. Longstone Tire in the UK is great with their shipping and service.
