i think there's a guy right outside of ashville that works on bikes - i may try him first since unlimited is like 40 minutes away. not sure if barnhart is doing any service work these days but i'll try them if the local guy can't do it.

i've now done 3 tires and dismounted 2 additional. So at like 20 per to install and like 10 per to dismount only I'm guessing I've "made" back $80 of the just under $300 I've spend for everything. Not too bad.

my advice stick to only doing sportbike wheels...Harley's and large roadbike or tubes...are miserable no matter what. Stiff sidewalls SUCK
