Looking for. Bike tire

Your bike brand doesn't matter - what matters is the size you're looking for and the type of tire you want. eg: is it a road, trail, or hyrid?
Chainreaction usually has clearance sales this time of year. Their pricing and shipping is ridiculously cheap and hard to beat. (Note: I did have a few problems with a delivery earlier this year - got delayed at customs). But even with duties (which are often NOT charged) it is very inexpensive and shipping usually takes just a few days for something like tires - which is fast considering it's shipping from Ireland for a lot of items. Another good on-line tire retailer is biketiresdirect.com (ships from the US). I sometimes use Vredestein tires on my roadbike which are sometimes hard to find in stores - biketiresdirect has a good selection.
For stores - MEC has a good selection of tires for both road and mountain and pretty good prices too. If you order from on-line - I'd recommend tubes too - and think about new rim tape - if you haven't changed this for a while.

Apparently you and sirwanker are the only ones who got the joke....
Sigh... humour another lost art:beaten:
Hahahaha. I never read his threads so no I would not have known. I can't even blame lack of coffee. LOL
If it was a joke I didn’t get it.
An SP I used to see needed a new front Wheel for her bike, and like a good sub I went searching and found it, bought it.
I took some tools, went to her place. But first had to untangle the destroyed lock, the theif had fucked it trying to steel the bike. Got the new wheel on. And then paid her regular price for a good session.
About a year and a half later I got tired of being her sub, I don’t take orders well. She upped her price and I never saw her again.

Thanks - I was wondering what I was missing!Click on the link in my initial response
Kudos to thumper18474 for a well played troll...though it was a wee bit mean to tease someone for a theft.
