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.

I get it, go for the plug that goes in from the inside, btw I get about 7-8K
on a rear & all of the tread is used.
