Odd size tires

theaftermarketgang.comprimo.htmOpen ↗

Here's one place. I searched "tire,19-400" to find it. It's
a wheel chair tire, from the looks of it.

Mark at Poweron Cycling sells 18x1 tubes for use with
schwalbe tires. He may be able to get the corresponding
tires www.poweroncycling.com

Good Luck Tom

Paul: I have no checked but the best results I get are from
the Hostellshop.com Might give it a try. Bill M

I have a lightning handcycle. It's a lean-tilt handcycle
trike. The two rear tires are in desperate need of
replacement and I can't find them ANYWHERE! Does anyone
have any idea where I can get 18"x1" (19-400) tires and
tubes? I'm desperate!

Thank you so much. That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm
not sure how I missed this one on my google search, I used
the exact same search yesterday and couldn't find anyone
who was carrying them. Thanks again.

I don't see it in the Hostel Shoppe catalog, but they may have it. If
you google it, you get stuff like:

I've tried to contact these guys to no avail. I got in touch
with Dr Jon Franks with Lightning handcycles and apparently
I've got a very early model. It seems that these 18x1" (19-
400) tubes and tires may not be made any more. If anyone
comes up with a dealer who has them I will be happy to buy
in large quantities from them. I'm going to keep looking.

Don't know about the tyres, but ICE specify the tubes for
their 406 wheeled trikes. ice.hpv.co.ukice.hpv.co.ukOpen ↗

I am building a delta streamliner trike with two of those for the rear. seem like a nice high pressure slick.
go to "bike parts"-"tires race/trails" scroll down and you should see them on the right.

Harris Cyclery has 18 x 1.5" tubes and tires, and they also stock
tires for the birdy folding bike which is an 18 x 1.12" tire and that
should work. The URL is:

Also, I take it you contacted the manufacturer of the
Lightning Handcycle and asked them where to get the tires?
If not, here is their address. 360 Sepulveda Blvd, Suite
