The order has been placed, space has been made in the garage and the machine will hopefully be with us before very much longer.

I’ll be ordering the 406 ones tomorrow, but in the meantime, the 349s are available, and I am confused :-)]]>sales@wrhpv.comNone2009-08-28T09:21:47+01:00http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/bb6299d0693211cbf51178afbf1306e8-13.html#unique-entry-id-13http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/bb6299d0693211cbf51178afbf1306e8-13.html#unique-entry-id-13More New Arrivals!

Schwalbe Duranos in 28-451! Now in the reorganised Small Tyre Shop

Also, Shraeder valve tubes in 451 (the Presta ones are on order but haven’t made it here yet!). ]]>sales@wrhpv.comNone2009-08-10T11:57:23+01:00http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/31a5478693210ef5919e60d375163a55-10.html#unique-entry-id-10http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/31a5478693210ef5919e60d375163a55-10.html#unique-entry-id-10Coming Soon!

New tube sizes!

I’ve just placed an order for some tubes in both Presta and Schraeder valve types for 451 and 349 size tyres. They should be here in a week or so and priced the same as the rest of the tube range.

Meanwhile, please note that the smaller of our two 406 inner tube sizes is also suitable for 37-451 tyres.]]>sales@wrhpv.comNone2009-07-23T14:10:40+01:00http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/0ac937a4402f59a49d3beb2c0708b8fb-9.html#unique-entry-id-9http://www.wrhpv.com/blog/index_files/0ac937a4402f59a49d3beb2c0708b8fb-9.html#unique-entry-id-9New tyres and a small competition

The HS110 37-451 tyres arrived this morning and are now available to order on the website.

If these sell well, we’ll look at stocking more 451 tyres in future, assuming we can get hold of them :-)

Also, tubes - do users of 451 tyres prefer Presta or Schraeder valves? Let me know in comments and I’ll order the most popular choice !

To encourage helpful replies, all those replying will have their names put in a hat ( or possibly a plant pot :-)) and the person whose name we pull out will get a pair of HS110s.

Competition will run until Sunday 16th August.

We’ve had several requests, over the past few weeks, to stock 451 tyres, so we went in search of some.

They’re a touch elusive, but we’ll shortly be getting a batch of Schwalbe HS110 37-451 tyres in stock, which I hope will be of use. The good news is that they’re a fairly inexpensive tyre and we expect to be able to offer them for under £10 including postage.

Also on order is a batch of wired 349 Kojaks, which we hope will help to fill the gap left by the sad demise of the 349 Stelvio and should be a similar price.

Rob now has his very own blog for his Glyde Round Britain trip.

He’s starting by detailing some the equipment he’s planning to use en route and he hopes to update regularly when he’s on the road next year.

Welcome to the new Westcountry Recumbents Blog!

As you’ve probably noticed, we’re having a bit of a tidy up round here and giving the place a lick of paint and some new curtains.

Please have a good look around. I hope you’ll like the new look pages - and if you find any places where we’ve spilled the turps or left pins in the soft furnishings, please let us know so we can get it tidied up!

We’ll be updating more pages as quickly as we can and adding new stuff whenever possible.

We’ve already added to our available range of small tyres, and we’d be interested to hear from you if you have any suggestions for others you’d like to see us carry - you can use this handy contact form if you wish.

You may have seen the GTT on the Gadget Show recently - weI’ll be posting a short account of our trip to Edinburgh soon.

Have fun!

Carol & Rob
