Wheels off £10 for front and back. You do however need to remove the disc brakes first and also tape up the rim else it'll scratch the paint. This was at a car tyre place.
Ride in ride out £30 or so. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will. In the end, your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching. |

Things have increased since I last did it
Most placed if it was just a tyre change did it for free (we did)
Valve and balance and tyre change we charged a few quid and put it in the christmas pot
How things have changed |
Things haven't changed really, just need to buddy up with your local tyre fitter.
I've developed a good relationship with the local bike mechanic, I take my tyres down if I need them swapping, £10 for a loose wheel, inc balancing and disposal. Depending on how he's feeling he might do me 2 for £15. I pay him in cash, he sticks in it his tool box. Take cash and offer it up.
It means that if I ever want a tyre doing he'll do it there while I wait for me as well, I think I've had to leave it with him once.
I can't recommend anywhere near you though I'm afraid. ____________________ CBT Passed: 30/08/2009, Theory Passed: 31/08/2010, Mod 1 Passed: 6/9/2010, Mod 2 Passed: 13/09/2010. Restriction ended 13/09/2012.
