Hi Martin here at justlambretta.com I'll be trading at Bridlington, upstairs on the balcony, please bring along any Schwalbe tyres that you'd like me to send to Vosa on your behalf. Maybe if I get enough we can get Vosa to bring some pressure on Schwalbe. I doubt very much if we /I'll get any return from Schwalbe but if we can get Vosa to to prove there's an issue then maybe Schwalbe will actually do something about it. Cheers, Martin.

Travelling 2 up to Brid but if i've got space I'll bring it. I consider myself lucky to be alive after my schwalbe wobblefest.

Yup, they're the ones.
My thoughts are that nobody is sending tyres to Vosa as it's probably a waste of £10 to do so given that Schwalbe want to blame us. It'll still only cost £10 to send 10 tyres, or £20 for 20. I'm quite happy to pay this on the off chance that Vosa might find that Schwalbe are to blame. I'll keep a record of anyone who brings any tyres to Brid and inform anyone of any action. I doubt very much that there'll be any return but it'd be nice to see Schwalbe get their knuckles wrapped.
If you can "share" my facebook post it would help.

No, just one Raceman that the thread showed unusual wear pattern, it hadn't delaminated.
Bit of a waste of time I'm afraid.
I'll bite my lip rather than expand.
