    I could tell you why treads is so cheap on bridgees,but I can't(or shouldn't)and it's part of the reason I won't use them.
    Kerry will prolly be a bit dearer too,but the service is worth it.

    It's no secret that Cycletreads are a retail arm of an importer. Perfectly legal.
    Just a shame that Leading Edge no longer competes.

    Don't want to get into a dutch auction, but in the interests of helping a fellow Jaffa.
    $299.00 for an B/Stone 010 or Metz M1 plus free fitting if you bring your wheel in.

    ...but can you be bothered taking your wheel off and 'driving' in there to get the work done? Nothing like riding into the shop on a Sat morning, chatting for about 15mins with the tyre guy while he fits it and then 'riding' off to wear it in!

    Depends how much you value your time in that case scenario?

    Reminds me of a few weeks ago when I rode into Motohaus and had Kerry fit a front tyre. As we were talking I noticed he was half way through taking off my rear wheel when I gave him a friendly reminder that it was the front he was supposed to be changing!

    Would have been a waste of time had we got that wrong.
