Default Ride in tyre swap coventry/banbury

Hi orgers

I need to get new tyres for the 650 but as i'm working seven days a week this month i need somewhere i can leave the bike in the morning and collect it in the evening.

I'm living near coventry but working in banbury (and having to drive as the rear is past dead), and i don't know anyone else who rides that i could ask to go for me.

Help

Ed

ps I can't fit 'em myself so no point ordering off t'internet

Could be perfect for you. although I don't know how you'd get to Banbury from there.

We use him for our tyres.

Try them also, a nice ride up the twisty bits, surely they let you eat

OK, a bit late on this, but in case of future needs, I use a chap in Harbury for tyres and MOTs. Steve is a dedicated biker, visits the Nurburgring regularly etc, and is a thoroughly decent all round good egg. You'll find cheaper but not better. One rear tyre he fitted for me he wasn't happy with the balance so removed and refitted it at 180deg rather than slap loads of weights on. Also I had a slow deflating tyre but I couldn't find anything, so I left it with him. He had it in a water bath, even removed and refitted it but still couldn't find anything, no charge because he hadn't fixed it! (suspected porous carcass).
