Tourance Available

There was a thread a few weeks ago asking about Tourance.

Near my office there is a bike tyre place.

E-mailled them for price and availability and then asked if they minded if I post their details here.

Don't know what they are like - I was enquiring so that I know when I have to replace the Trail Wings fitted to my 1150 as OE.

Here is the reply to my enquiry so try it if you want to:

When I asked about posting the details, the reply was:


"No problem, that would be much appreciated.

I think I will be trying them about early May time so I have some nice grippy new stuff for the TT.

No axe to grind here - hope it works out out for all of us!


The web site has address and all other details, as you would expect.

Is that price for a front or a rear? Seems a bit steep to me

The first question from me was........

"Please will you confirm if you stock Tourance or are able to get them in and give me a price to supply and fit a pair"



From the answers I have posted above I would expect that the price quoted is for a pair supplied and fitted.

I suggest that anyone needing new boots should ask before going there.


Martin,I trust that sorts that out? Thanks - I should have said it was the price quoted for a pair. I do assume that a pair means 1*front and 1*rear!!!!!!!!

Hi, back again!

For info; I recently (16/01/03) bought a rear Tourance for £78.73p inc VAT. from Universal Tyres in Chelmsford.

The old one it replaced was 18 months old and had covered 13,000 miles! Not bad I thought.

While I'm on the subject, the front was £70.18p inc VAT. from the same supplier (03/09/02) and replaced the original that had done 17,500 miles.

Both were off the shelf!

Just to confirm - the above prices ARE for a pair of Tourances.

SMCT are good, but a bit slow at weeknds, 'cos there's usually a queue!

PS.

The prices I quoted were for tryes fitted and including VAT.
