700 x 20c tyres

[KGB]

Hey all, I need a 700x20 tyre and cannot find any for the life of me.
Veloflex Masters and Conti Supersonics used to be good options but seem to be either no longer available or if they are, it is only in bigger sizes.
All the newest light/fast tyres come in 23c as the smallest size.

I understand the current trend is wider and lower pressure blah blah blah but unfortunately the bike I'm putting these on has very minimal clearance at the rear and I need a 20c tyre.

Any suggestions are appreciated, bonus points if you can provide a link. I've tried searching but most threads (here and elsewhere) are at least a couple of years old.

Gees they getting hard to find, I've used Veloflex Record 20's and a search doesn't find them. I did find these;

Thanks Mike. Ouch, that's expensive though. I'll keep them in mind.

Got any 19's???

The problem is, it's for the rear of my track bike. I already have another track bike which I can ride but it's not quite as mental and aggressive as this one! With the current chain length, I can run 90, 92 or 94 gear inches. Great for training and racing outdoors. Indoors, I want to ride 96 (have to, really, to be competitive at a decent level). If I put 96 on, the rear tyre juuuuuust rubs on the frame. I could add another link to run the 96 gear but then it would be too long for 90 and maybe 92.

Maybe I need to look into a half link, it would certainly be cheaper.

Not a great brand, but I stumbled on these when Googling the tyres on a bike I bought last month.

They have other NOS & weird ones on there but I think only 2 other 20c and they're treaded types..

You can have those ones of mine they are unused but dirty from being in the shed IRC paperlite plus 220tpi .Used to fly on these many years ago

Put in a half link or get a second chain. This tyre idea has whiskers on it, what if you get a flat and need to put a different wheel in? Or what if someone lends you a nice disc wheel or 5 spoke or something with, gasp horror, a 23mm tyre on it?
Fix the chain length dude
