I've found protyre to be alright (google them, straight down the 32 come off the junction AFTER Tesco and not far from there), but if you take loose wheels in make sure they have knocked the sproket right in, they ALWAYS manage to **** that bit up, if you're taking the bike in it should be fine cos they'll see it when they re-fit it to the bike.

Decent prices too

the plan is to ride in with the wheels and ride out and let them keep old tyres to do what they want with em.

Give them a bell mate, they really are not too far. Just book in though otherwise you might be waiting around for a while until they have a free slot

I use V-Ten in Thornbury. Very reasonable and good service. You could also try JHS Racing in Keynsham just at the end of the ring road.

Just check your brake caliper bolts if you get JHS to do them..

I nearly had a nasty incident with them... (although in fair play, they did sort it out instantly when I got on to them)
