The tire is still soft but was stored flat, so it is a little flattened from storage. With a tube inside when it is mounted on a rim it should pop right back into shape. Also, the tire is kind of dirty from storage.
In the first pictures I wiped off two letters on this tire with just water and a paper towel, and the letters brightened right up. Other than that, I did not clean this tire at all, and it should clean up to be very nice. It still has the wax from the tire mold on it from when it was made. Overall a very rare slick tire for your CCM muscle bike, or can be used on any muscle bike from the 60's or 70's such as the Raleigh Chopper, Murray Eliminator, Huffy Rail, Wheel, or Slinghot, or. Perfect for a mint original bike or for your best restoration.
