Hi

Well im about to press the order button at Tyre shopper.co.uk for a set of pilot sportys at £91 fitted to loose wheels, any one know if i can get them any cheaper. They will do the city demoms for £83 fitted. Thought i better get them as i found a small bald spot this morning Shocked . And does anyone know if the ybr 125 wheels have inner tubes or not? on the oem tyres. I managed 4200 miles with the chinky ones.

hi, i bought a metzeler front and a bridgestone rear for my ybr125c as originals were slipping even when the fog came in! now i stick to the road like 'glue'!
i bought the tyres from wemoto.com after pricing around for a month paid approx £70- £75 for them both then fitting totalling around £110. best ton i've spent for a long time.
had these tyres on since november 2008 and only showing very very slight wear after 2000 miles.
metz is nylon! bridge is rubber, they are on a tubeless rim.
hope this helps you and happy biking

I found them cheapest for mail order. Almost all brands and OEM diddlefications.
Why the fcuk is it so bloody complex. They are just tyres. They get rubbed into the road...? Evil or Very Mad

It's as bad as choosing bloody hair shampoo or washing-bloody-powder... Really.... Laughing

couldnt find any 2.75-18 on there site thnx, and yes i try to look at all options on any thing i buy including washing powder and apart from shampoo as i shave my hair very short, and since ive had 3k of twitchyness on my chinky tyres i want somthing that will stick at the best possible price. So even after looking at buying the tyres seperatly, the place i have got them from works out to be the cheapest
