Tyre fitting - SV650.org

appollo1 · 02-05-10, 09:39 PM

Does anyone know anywhere that will fit a tyre that has not been purchased from that establishment?

I know most car tyre places do it but not too sure about bike tyres?

Thanks

Jim Allens in falkirk fit the tyre to the loose wheel and balance for £11. took mine in at 1 it was done by half two and that was on a heaving saturday.
I can also recomment BITS in Grangemouth for tyres - ordered mine on thursday, arrived friday afternoon. and decent prices too.

No mate but a colleague in work bought 2 tyres from them and had them fitted to his SV1000 and there was a little problem with damage to the rim i believe.
