In the 70's I was fond of Firestone for the soft rubber and resulting handling improvement of F 70's but they wore out under 10k miles, were biased ply, and looked goofy on standard width rims.

Freebeards super still has a nose low condition overall as opposed to the ridiculously high nose of a later standard super necessitating the chin vent. He's also got the strut bracing.

Riveted? All my oddball home made customized rims were welded
