I have no DB1 but its less exotic and fatter sister the Paso.

For these bikes, Tyre availability was always a problem. After Pirelli stopped making the MP7Sport only Michelin was supplying tyres and these continued till roughly 2010.
Golden Tyre made modern variants and if I am not mistaking Shicko carried them furher but as demand is low, not many of these 16" bikes are making miles, supply was limited and availability erratic.

But today I discovered that (at least in Holland and Belgium) a new batch has arrived. Date code about three months old. I have immediately ordered a set but would like to give this info to DB1 riders in this forum.
Surf to Bike design Benelux.

Cheers,
William
