Default I recommend Woosters

Got my bike out of the garage last night for the first time since last Sunday and I had a flat front tyre. I inflated the tyre and it lost 50% of the air overnight, so slow puncture.

After topping up the tyre up this morning, I rode across Leeds to Woosters, on the A64 out of Leeds, its next to the garden centre.

In no time at all I had a new tyre fitted and it cost me £83 inc vat.

As a matter on interest I called Dyrons in Leeds and it'd have cost me £110 inc vat. I also called Appleyards, Roseville Rd, but they have no workshop facilities on a weekend.

Just need to get the tyre scrubbed in now.

I therefore recommend Woosters

Good place, used them whenever my 125 got a puncture, which was about once a month and they were always sound

Layout is pants, colours are horrid.

It's like someone has vomited on Microsoft Frontpage...

Deals look quite good though...

Quoted me the following (loose wheels)

Road attacks (pair, fitted) £148
Sport Attacks (pair, fitted) £157

Michelin PR2's (piar, fitted) £189

and Rensports £140 (pair,fitted)


Not too bad at all, especially the Road Attacks which the shop down the road quoted me £210 fitted!
