Changes at Shaws’ Our retail display area will be subject to a major facelift this spring. We will be moving walls and adding doors to make room for a rear entrance for an additional tenant Ryan’s Sporting Goods. For over three decades Ryan’s has been serving the needs of South Bay runners. They like Shaws’ are a knowledge based enthusiast store. We expect that now cyclist can conveniently purchase properly fitting shoes for cross training while more runners can be exposed to the joys of road cycling.
Tubular tires
‘Clinchers’ tires and rims are heavier, transmit more road shock and do not corner as well. Both ‘clinchers’ and ‘sew ups’ are available in a range of price points and applications. Based on a compromise between durability and performance the best value clinchers are in the lower to middle price range. Higher end tubulars are the most durable and posses the highest level performance (‘sew ups’ are fitted to ‘sew up’ rim).
Shaws’ offers a selection of training and racing tubulars for the road and track. For road racing we feature the Vittoria CX Classic (These are not the less resilient CX EVO or competing other branded tires with synthetic construction). This aged handmade cold process tire features a cotton casing with a natural latex tube. With mixed tread, supple latex coated side walls, about 250 gms. with an operating pressure rage or 6-14 atmospheres (we recommend 7-8 atm) these tires offer simply the best ride!
