Default Recommedation for new tyres around Cardiff

Hi all

I want to replace both tyres on the SV. Can anyone recommend a ride in ride out that either supplies and fits or one who will just fit them if I supply?

Thanks

There is a 'mystery choice' but you'll have to check it out. Actually there's two. I've previously used a mobile fitter. Got tyres myself and he fit them. You just get the bike up and the wheels off. He will literally change them in front of your house, balance them etc for £20 for the pair. Then you put the wheels back on and make sure chain is adjusted correctly. Don't know if he's still going but here's the link - http://www.dcmct.co.uk/.

The real mystery option is around the corner from me. There is a place called 'Windway' on North Clive Street (Map). I was gonna use them before I found the mobile guy and they said they could supply and fit. They've got a workshop from what I can see so should be ride in and out. But, never used them and don't know prices.

At least its worth a call to find out IMO. Good luck and let us know who you use / how it turns out.

Dan at dcmct is no more sadly.

SW superbikes are competitive so may go with them. Thinking of pilot power 2 CT at £245 fitted ride in ride out.

I had my tyres fitted for me by Home Fit Tyres.

He was about that price and came to me to fit them.

His name is Ioan and his number is 07816 339 726

He works are GEAES on Nantgawr, so, he can fit in Cardiff

Sad to hear, thought he was pretty good. Let us know how you get on. Might be useful for when I'm ready to change my front this summer.
