As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

How much do you typically pay to have tyres fitted?

I've usually found it is more expensive to buy loose tyres.

You could be right depending where you take your bike, no business will take your wheels out for nothing.....but its definitely beneficial if you take loose wheels in though, or fit them yourself.

I think Wheelhouse (Coleshill, south-east of Brum) was £20 for a change, but that may have included plugging my puncture. Can't find the receipt...

TomL , That is a top find. I like PR4's but have moved onto Dunlop Sportsmart 3's but how near are PR'3's to 4's because that price is a bargain.

On a K12/13S? Better! Much better!! Much, much better!!! Much, much, much better!!!!

Better stabilty over white lines and broken, longitudinal surfaces! Same great grip wet or dry for miles and miles and miles!

They are like hen's teeth for a K13S as they stopped making them a couple of years ago. Still available for the K12S.
