in black at $113.95. One thing we cannot tell you honestly: Ridstar sells two candidate tires on its own storefront — an \"Outer tire\" at $159 and a \"20 inch folding outer tire\" at $79 — and publishes a size on neither. Which of the two this matches is unresolved, and we would rather print that than pick the flattering one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Ridstar says this fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe cannot give you a fitment list for this part, and rather than invent one, here is exactly why.

We have asked; until Ridstar answers, this page will not claim one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTread pattern, casing, TPI, bead type and whether it is tubeless-ready.
