OOps - forgot to mention that these are Criterium Seta model. Tread is typical mixed. Weight is a bit over is probably 220ish or so I would guess. This was the most common standard race tire of the era.

> Hi CR folks,

\r?\n> Today on the block are Italian Clement Silk Seta tires. These are in amazingly

\r?\n> well preserved condition - been stored in the dark in their "round" shape - (not

\r?\n> folded). Will hold air of course.

\r?\n> They are probably the last of the Italian ones, so later labels. The tread says

\r?\n> made in Italy of course.

\r?\n> Now they are fairly old by now, so if you use them do so only at your own risk

\r?\n> of course. But - if you buy them and you aren't happy with them upon

\r?\n> inspection, send them back for a full refund (less shipping). I doubt you will

\r?\n> find finer examples of NOS old Italian Silk (tires).

\r?\n> I have 2 pairs available at this time. Price is $ 240 per pair, and I will

\r?\n> include shipping within the US. Due to time constraints, I don't want to ship

\r?\n> these outside the US.

\r?\n> Payment will be by check/money order. No paypal at this time.

\r?\n> Just email me if interested.
