Did this one for the 2015 Winter OffRoad Build-Off, but this is the correct area for it.

It is badged as a MasterSports but appears to be a direct copy or maybe a rebadge of the CyclePro 26" BMX, whatever it is, it is a great bike to ride, awesome gearing, nice light but stiff frame and no cable clutter. Actually it is my favorite riding bike out of all the bikes I have!

Only changes I made were to fit a Gyes leather saddle on a cromoly layback seatpost, fit a nickle plated KMC chain to replace the rusted original, replace the steel rims and hubs with some original 7X Arayas with a high flange Sunshine front and a 'HotRodded' coaster on the rear with a big alloy heatsink, all wrapped in some genuine (sic) 'Hwa Fong' Taiwan gumwalls:

Sorry to bring back a semi-old thread, just need to know if you can point me in the right direction so I can purchase a few pairs of those tires?

Thanks!

You are not the first to ask that...
I will try and chase down where I got them, from memory they were on clearance though...

Managed to find them again, but only in Australia.
They are Hwa Fong 26x2.1 gumwalls.

These links may help you narrow down a seller over there though:

The place I got them, they were cheaper back then:

Another place that has them:

I looked around the web for a vendor in the U.S. and couldn't locate one, the Hwa Fong site isnt that much more helpful either. I sent them a message thru their site. I'll wait for a response but wont hold my breath.. Thanks Luke. Nike bike BTW, just picked up a 26" Cycle Pro and it's a comfortable cruiser.

Yes, they are very comfortable, great geometry!
I recently picked up a Repco branded version (just frame and fork) that I will build up soon...
