Just had new tyres fitted (Conti TA3s)
The guy I use has a really good rep and I’ve never had any issues but on this occasion he’s marked both my wheels. I didn’t see it happen but he was vey apologetic and to his credit he told me what had happened before I’d seen the damage and has said he’ll have the wheels repainted at my convenience. It’s a triple black with gloss black painted wheels.
Problem I have is I need to remove both wheels at the same time while the work is being done, which has got me a little twitchy.
I’m thinking , with bike on the centre stand, jackup the front of the bike under the bash plate, remove front wheel , refit axle and lower axle onto a car axle stand allowing the rear to be removed.
May tie the centrestand forward to remove any risk of it rocking forward.
If anyone has any advice or tips I’d really appreciate it
Thanks.
