Anyone know if Cycletreads do price matching?

As per the subject, do 'Treads do price matching on tyres?

Need some new hoops for the '14 - and there's an over 10% difference in pricing.

As far as I can see, there's nothing on their website to that effect.

TIA,
Mully

You're kidding right?

I don't know anyone who can match Cycletreads pricing.

They often sell for less than my buy price!

I saved almost $100 by ringing around the dealers to get the best price. Cycletreads were far from cheapest.

Hmm - maybe on loss leaders, but not on Pilot Power 2CTs.

Over 10% more expensive than another company's quoted price. Going off their website. I might call them tomorrow and check.

TSS Red Baron in Lower Hutt consistantly smash Cycle Treads on tyre prices. Give Andrew in the spares dept a call tomorrow on 04 569 3989 and check it out. Couriers charges aren't that expensive either.

Dury Performance shits all over cycletreads price for tyres

, Plus I orded a chain from them, was quoted a price on the phone, but when I went to pick it up, the price had blown out buy +$70 WTF? (their excuse was they could only get one which had extra links, but they did not call me though), stuff cycle treads from now on.

Don't forget that George from Moto-MD now has a mobile tyre fitting service. He'll also match any price...

Yup, agree with the refs to Drury Performance

Feel free mate. Doubt it'll make em any cheaper than they already are though.

I have compared online prices and found TSS prices to be at the low end. However for me of much greater value is the fitting service. You make a time leave the bike and go for a donut and coffee just down the road, have a look in the sports goods store across the road and wander back to pick up the bike. All done in the time it takes to fit the tyre.

That's another drawcard alright. $45 to fit a tyre on the bike is the cheapest I've heard of for some time.
