Halo Twin Rail Courier tyreHalo Schwag Grab: winners announced! (finally)
We've had a lot on our plate what with moving servers and associated faffing, but things have calmed down enough for us to fire up the random number generator and pick five names from the e-Hat: those five people will be sporting funky Halo Twin Rail tyres very soon, and they are:
Trek Sal
grant
sc129806 (catchy!)
robdeanhove
watercrook
Congrats to you five, and sorry to everyone who's going to have to spen money on rubber instead... Next up in schwag corner it looks like we might have a literary prize for all you bookworms out there. Check back soon!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last week's Schwag Grab offered a taste of adventure, this week… it's a taste of rubber!
Not any old rubber either courtesy of Ison Distribution we've got five pairs of the very fine Halo Courier Twin Rail tyres worth £200 in total (okay £199.95 then) to give away to five lucky road.cc users.
Available in a variety of colours to match your steed – well as long as it's white, pink, green or purple, or you can play it safe with black or the two-tone black and grey dual compound Courier Twin Rail we tested.
The Courier Twin Rail may primarily be aimed at the urban cyclist on his or her fixed or singlespeed but as we found out when we tested them they are great all-rounders well suited to any sort of commuting or mile-munching – tough too, well they are made to cope with city streets.
So if you want some “Lively, dependable road rubber for aggressive fixers and mile munching club bikes” or indeed any other bike… get commenting.
Usual Scwag Grab rules apply – oh, and tell us which colour you'd like, not that we're making any promises mind

TBF I think that's before she saw the light and got on her bike. Not so great if her views have been informed by Mr. Briggs though.

That's a great price. Just bear in mind Import duty and handling charges will be applied pre delivery.

Yep, I appreciate your problem. I wouldn't buy a bike without at least sitting on the same frame configuration on a trainer in the shop, something...

To parody Henry Ford
"I'll have any colour as long as it's free."
I would love the black ones!
Oooh, any colour would be lovely - White, Grey or Green FTW
I think Pink with my Lilac jersey would go great!
black and grey would look B) on my black Roadrat
Count me in, I would love a black pair, please.
I would love the pink- and will give halo some free exposure by parading them round the sportive I grabbed last week if you fancy fixing the draw
Wicked colours. Count me in, please.
This one for Pedalhed who commented on the pic
I like tyres, my bike needs tyres, any colour (I used to run twin rails on my mountain bike, they rock)
Pink would rock for Mrs. Monkey's commuting bike...
I'd give the purple or green ones a good run . B)
I'm grey (gray?) by name and green by nature, so I could go nuts for either of those bad boys. I'm looking, and I'm liking.
Count me in please! All colours look good.
I need some purple ones for my s/s build. However winning any colour would frankly be nice.
Purple please, it's just so imperial
Lime green are my choice - or white any for that matter.
I bought a white pair of these for my pink singlespeed. They are now very mucky, so would love some lime green ones for a real clash!
Here's hoping that the little bit of tread sees my on my back side in the 09/10 winter on the snow and ice a less times than my total of 4 from the 08/09 season of slippyness!
You gotta love a cheesy colour co-ordinated tyres/grips/saddle combo
Got to be purple my favorite Opal fruit or is it still starburst....
purple good to me -- but on a yellow bike !!!!!
go for it, nothing wrong with making a bike distinctive.
count me in for any colour
d'oh green didn't work
Any colour way would look smashing on my white halo aerorage rims. Green
or pink 
why oh why no yellow 
i dont want them thanks..(but im in Bath on thursday morning so could pick 'em up before the draw, save you the trouble.)
they will go with my hyperglo t-shirt
Pink looks ace (well, so do the others, but pink is best)
Just the job for my fixie. Don't know why but I get theses bald patches on the rear tyre
Any of the bright colours would look grrrreat!
