Thanks for the review.

Thanks for the review. As someone who likes a bargain, these look like a very good tire for the money. I will definitely get a pair to try.

The lovely Ms. Gravel Cyclist in the background definitely balanced out the appearance of the presenter😉. Great review. I think I will give them a shot at that price point and warranty you can’t go wrong

Great tires and great value indeed! I too have a set running on some Farsports rims. They are a great match - looking forward to hearing your take. Cool opening sequence!

worth a try. thanks.

Looks like a great road tyre at a killer price!

Cheers JOM, I was tossing up between these and the Good Year offerings. On the back of what you say, I’ll head on over to the AC website. Great “ No BS” review 👍

As an FYI, follow the Amazon links I have posted at the bottom of the review. American Classic is selling these direct from Amazon only, and I heard USA sales only? I hope that isn't the case.

Agree with your review, have run a rear 700c x 28mm TL for 500miles with no issues, seated first go, more rubber content than my front Conti GP5000TL. The marketing looks very similar to Pirelli 😉, maybe the same OEM.

First, thanks for the entertainment over the years. Secondly to how they roll. I think it would be interesting and important to know who manufactures these. We all know many smaller bike tire brands & large cycling brands have tires manufactured and badged for them by other well known tire brand companies. I think a backstory of the industry would be enlightening and entertaining. Perhaps a little video dive into the industry would find audience.

Thanks for the kind words and feedback. I wish I knew who the manufacturer was, the only clue I see is their casings are similar to tyres under the Goodyear brand. Perhaps the same manufacturer? I will have to put my feelers out, appreciate the backstory idea.

American Classic manufacturers its tires out of its own factory in Taiwan. Thanks to that unique advantage and its direct-to-consumer model is how they are able to offer such great price points - where most tire "brands" need to pay a manufacturer, American Classic is cutting that out.

Wait. What tires did you review?

I have 28mm tubed tires on my roadbike. Perfect width IMO as they provide good comfort. However I.hardly ride it anymore. I either ride my gravel or MTB.

Would this be a viable replacement of gator skin?

The few complaints about the “tasty” secenery in the background reminds of a scene in crocodile Dundee where Mick grabs the snooty NY croon’s crouch. Sue then says “he’s Australian”. 😂😂😂

Appreciate the words, we need more humour in the comments section :) The complainers are not accepting of a confident, 50yo woman who is fast becoming one heck of a cyclist.

@@GravelCyclist glad you took it in the spirit it was intended! BTW really like the tours of the small towns. A shame to see some of them dying but maybe people will start moving back from out of the cities that are being allowed to descend into chaos and filth.
