Tire Prices
I just had the rear replaced last week. Breaks down as follows:
140/80-17 Avon Roadrider rear 125.99
500/530-17 Tube 11.95
EPA Tire Disposal fee 2.00
Labor (mount and balance) 27.50
Sales Tax 9.66
177.10
I had this done at a local undealer shop. I removed the wheel
and took it in and left it, but it was done in 1 hour. Gerry,
at the 2 Wheel Bike Shop in Byron (Macon?) is a good
guy to me so far, and I assured that there was a front to
match. The front runs about $25.00 less. While removing
the rear wheel in our Georgia 95 deg heat, I was wondering
if saving $27.50 was really worth it. Gerry's air conditioned
shop with lift, pullers etc. really nice. I usually don't shop
the internet for things I can't install myself. I've been on the
other end of that stick, and I think I have a vested interest
in keeping Gerry around.
