Tyre & Brake Pad Home Service

Post by Nigel Newman »

Ok, could maybe do with some help or advice. I'm setting off on my XT660 next Thursday to the Pyranees & I'm working everyday except Sunday. I have my tyres & brake pads at home but have run out of time to take bike somewhere to fit them (& too useless to do it myself). Does anybody know of a home service or somewhere local to me (Leyland, Lancs) that maybe open on Sunday (or late night)that could do it ?
Panicking a bit now :unsure:
Thanks

This may sound strange... but have you tried Kwik Fit? They are open from 08:30 to 18:00 during the week and 10:00 to 16:00 on Sunday.

Good old fashioned repair job. There's 3 of us so between us we've got the kit. Hopefully won't get one though.
