I'll forgo my normal Michelin rant :oops:

Looks like a good price, but before people buy online deals, they need to think about how they are going to get the tyre fitted. Also its ~£130 inc p&p not £120 ;)

Most bike shops will do it, but some will charge ~£25 per WHEEL, yes, that is an extra £50 to get them fitted!! You are at ~£180 now :shock:

If you shop about a bit there are a few places that will fit to a loose wheel for ~£10 (so +£20 pair, £10 if you are real lucky).

You now need to contact a local tyre dealer and see how much they want for a set of tyres fitted ... bearing in mind most fit to a loose wheel for free (inclusive) you might find that its actually no dearer, if not cheaper to get them straight from a local shop ... just food for thought ....

I got mine there in November. £214 delivered for 2 pairs! I love them. The grip is fantastic dry or wet. Recommended.
