Don't ask me, I just ride
Hey there BARFers....where are people getting their tires mounted these days? I need to install a rear tire that I already purchased through J&P Cycles a while ago. Normally Cycle Gear, since they have the same parent company, will install the tire off bike for $30 (vs. the normal $60) as if you bought it from them locally, but my local CG told me that I had to have them mounted within 30 days of purchase to be eligible for this discount. Seems kinda shady as I cannot find the policy listed on either company's website, but nevertheless that made me wonder what my alternatives are. Years ago there was a guy on here named Angel that mounted tires out of a service station in SJ dirt cheap, but he is long gone. What are other people doing for this service nowadays? Does anyone have a reasonably priced place that will do it on bike as opposed to having to remove the wheel myself? I am looking in the East Bay specifically, but open to other localities of need be. Thanks!
