Bargain!

[Miz]

Have just collected this little lot



really pleased with it as it only cost me £31, just had to do a 200mile round trip to collect.

Anyone want any tyres fitting and balancing

[Spyke]

Ooh, nice!

Yeah I'm nearly in the market for some new rear rubber, if you set off about now you should be here just in time!

[Miz]

Sorry, I'm not planning a mobile service[SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH], but I might make an exception, I'll let you know when I'm due on your doorstep.

Kit even came with adapters for Triumph and BMW single side wheels, weights and valves.

wow where did you find that bargain?

[snapdragon]

woooooooooooooo Toys

[Miz]

wow where did you find that bargain?

It was on E-Bay, but was not listed very well, so did not get a lot of interest.
It was a courier firm that were not using bikes anymore, so were selling off the surplus tools, had to go to Accrington to collect, but I don't have to pay for fuel on the car, so distance no object..

[Crap Tartan]

All you have to do now is find a cheap supply of tyres and yer in business!

Then get a van and we have a mobile fitting service............................

[shedmonkey]

Miz could go round with the van and gear nicking tyres off bikes and then sell them back including fitting Keeerrrrrrrrrcccchhhhiiinnnnggggg

[Fausto]

Wow bargain! I'd love a bead breaker. That's the hardest part of doing your own tyres I find.
I've never actually balanced one yet. I just leave the original weights in place. line up the red dot with the valve and take it for a spin to see how it feels. Been ok so far.
The best trick I found to make the tyre fitting easier was clamping the wheel down to the bench using an old car wheel. It makes such a difference.

Well while sorting out the head bearings (that ended up being head bearings, wheel bearings and new Renthal bars) I have tested the wheel balancer, only needed 20g to sort the front wheel.
