Marathon Plus 700c bulk buy - Collect from Holloway Cycles

Is there a spare 28 or 25 I can buy at DWNHM tonight?

max - yep
jol - not as of yet, but once the distro sends me the rest of the tyres, i got a few spare 25c's. i'll let you know.

Damn, Cyclesurgery it is. Got a hole!

twice fail, should be home early tonight so i'll probably head to mitch to watch the first league game. sorry greasy!

i was going to pick mine up tomorrow. you heading to newington? failing that i'll rock up to the shop for before 6ish

just got mine, sweet!

ok i just got back in the contry, think i'll go pick mine up tomorrow...too much happens on this forum in 3weeks, if i turn up at holloway they will be there, yes?

yep

See you tomorrow then BABY.

Yay... I picked mine up today. Woop.

I can't get there till tuesday. tuesday it is

what about the weekend...get a fresh set on there.... ooo.

Has anyone changed their minds about about their tyres? I would like 2 more if there's any left over, 25's or 28's - doesn't matter.

same here after ali

If you want my 25s you can take them.

Just to say I got a mpp for £19 from evans using a cycles price check with spa cycles.

in which one Emmet?
did you need the print out?

Did you print out the spa cycles page and take it in there?
Might have to print one out and keep it in my bag just in case...

I went to the one on the cut, waterloo. But the website seems to entail that this service is available from all evans stores.
Had a printout (which was needed) but he barely looked at it, and did not enquire about p&p which would of added £3.

indeed Todd indeed, print out a few just in case, anyway I will do

I bought a pair of 28s yesterday but couldn't get the bead to stay in my (cheap road) rim so took them back to BC... Anyone else had this problem? Should I just get 25s?

It was a sod getting a 32 on an open pro, I got one bead on then when I went to get the second bead on the first would fall out. Got there eventually though.

You have to seat them properly but I've never had a problem with them that wasn't caused by me being sloppy. I sweat getting them on though.

I gave up after half an hour... It was like some kind of retarded Charlie Chaplin comedy routine...

i found that with my old cheap front....i got round it by making sure they sat properly and pumping them slowely...
also less pressure puts less strain on it although when i banked hard in a couple of games they popped out...i dunno...had the problem for a bit and their fine now...
