Where to get a tyre repaired

Post by Greenblood »

Got a nail in my tyre yesterday on the Bells line rd.
Where can I get the tyre fixed in western Sydney.
Looking for a good job as I have done only 3K on the tyre.

Any bike should be able to fix it.
Try Westerns.. or Kelens...

Make sure they take the tyre off and clean and plug it from the inside with a mushroom type plug.

Mate any decent bike shop can do it. Just make sure they remove the tyre and plug it from the inside with one of those muchroom type patch/plugs!!!! :wink:
