Just wondering where the best local place to get a tyre fitted would be, When i bought my bike the seller had a new tyre coming for it from Northern Accecories, which i have now collected from him, and need to get fitted, i am in Pakuranga and work in Takanini, Someone suggested Drury Tyres, but i thought they only did car tyres?? can anyone help.

Yep, Drury tyres but not the main branch. It's back to Drury roundabout a bit from the main Drury tyres depot. There's sings up with motorbikes etc.

Mouldy from cycletreads now works there and will do tyres and fitting and good bloke too :)

Been getting mine from there lately cos of the convenience.

In East Auckland, you also have Botany Honda and Triple X Moto... both are regular bike shops etc.

If you can get the wheel out take it to any tyre shop and they will be able to fit it. Bike wheels are exactly the same as a car wheel just a little skinnyer.
Dont worry about balancing them I never did mine and had no problems.
