Tubular Tyre fitting in Gloucester

[speedthing]

As title ive got some nice 700c Tubular rims which need new tyres the thing is the bike shops in Gloucestershire don't seem to want to fit them. Any know a shop or anyone around the Gloucestershire area that can fit them or near ish to Glos if i have to travel a bit.

cheers AL

I can't help on a shop recommendation, but why don't you do it yourself? It really isn't that hard, and if you're stuck for time then I can recommend the effeto mariposa carogna tape - took about 10 minutes a wheel and was easier than fitting clinchers.

well i was thinking of doing it myself where can you get this suff from.

Re:

Never been the same since TG Hall in Eastgate Street closed
Or Single Track in Northgate street or even BigFoot in lower Southgate Street.. Mind you Mead and Thomkins in Westgate street by the folk museum were shit so no loss there anyway

Won't the Muppets in Evans or Leisure Lakes take a look or are you too retro for them (sorry don't do roadie retro) .... Never been the same in Cheltenham since Bike Tech went pop!

I'm guessing Mitchells have never sold a tub in their illustrious history

Looks like your on your own
