Jamie: I kinda get the feeling you meant to send this to your "house" mailing list rather than the CR list? We stock all the major ties at CDO, but to put some much-needed vintage bike spin on the question, I suggest you look at the Dutch tire co. Vfredestein (sp?) as imported by Veltec...they still have some nice gum wall tires in wire bead and have a nice traditional look, blending well with vintage goods. They have no 27" sizes sadly, but a lot of variations of 700c. And even their folding tires are not too bad at $39.99@
