chrisw Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 "Down to canvas" .... seriously don't do that, you don't need a blow out on bike ! Dunlops are OK, Bridgstone BT014's aren't a bad tyre to change to. Regarding buyig tyres from someone like busters, sometimes buying from them and then taking them to a tyre dealer to change/balance can be slightly more expensive than just buying from a dealer in the first place. Phone around your local bike shops and get some prices.
AlexYZFThundercat Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 OK thanks mate, our family friend Kev is a mechanic and he says he might be able to get me some cheap tyres and balence them. kevs a sound bloke, took out my down tubes last night, was welding on them 4 bout 5 hours. they are shagged, another thing on the list of things needed
