Tyres in Spain

tyres in Spain, Lleida

I had occasion to randomly call into this dealership recently and I found them very helpful and had a new Metzler Tourance Next fitted within around an hour. No more expensive than any other price I had been given. I had a hugely entertaining chat ( in English) with Lluis Oromi Cornado the Sales Manager BMW who has huge pedigree as a solo motorcycle adventurer , motorcycle racer, adventure tour manager and all sorts of other fun. The service manager had enough english to do the tyre transaction no problem. There is a second outlet in Huesca.

I'll second that. I know Lluis quite well and sometimes go on the Moto2 'club' excursions in May and a bikers' breakfast meeting every Boxing day.

The chief mechanic, Carles, is fantastic as is Lluis business partner, Angel, who is nominally in charge of the Harley-Davidson side of the business also seems to know the entire BMW parts catalogue by heart, as evidenced by my fixing up for participants at my HISS events (now ancient history) to limp their bikes up to Lleida wit the necessities already waiting to be fitted!

* I'm a bit of a fraud o Boxing day as I only have to ride a few miles from my home here in the Pyrenees to the restaurant while some intrepid local bikers even make it all the way up from the coast - in time for the 8.30 start!

Nice one Simon, Lluis seems a great guy and all the other staff members were friendly and engaging even after I massacred the Spanish language

Ha ha, the Catalans have no issues with foreigners massacring the Spanish language! :)
 
Great reviews and recommendations there :thumb2

I'll be travelling through that part of Spain next week and will add to the many foreigners massacring their lovely language :blast

Thanks matey, I'd like to put it on the TET Spain route but only if it's OK.

The place gets mixed reviews on Google - not that this means so much - can you put me n to the Facebook guy s I can check it out, ask if they have off-road tyres in stock, etc..

Worthwhile information about the tyres in Spain. Thanks Simon.

:beer:

Cheers

Got caught short of rubber in the Picos. Nice lady in the hotel put me on to a tyre place called RAPE pronounced raapey in Gijon. No English so you will need google translate but excellent service. Sent me down the road to a café while they sorted my new back tyre and I was still on the first drink when they came to say finished. brilliant price as well. Going to go back next time I am in Spain for a new set.

Regards Steve
 
tyres in the Picos ( just off the motorway and on the way up to Panes and Potes)

I used these guys recently. Benjamin Junior is front of house and Benjamin Snr. is head mechanic.

They do not carry much stock for large adventure bike. As I knew I would be heading back that way it suited me to have them get a quote on the tyres and fitting and agree a date to have the tyres fitted. All done via email and Google translate. I tuned up on the appointed time and the tyres were fitted. I was more than happy with the price and service. The rear pads were gone, and they changed these for €28 and did a few more small bits and pieces for me, gratis. You will see the garage on the left hand side of the road as you head up the mountains just past Unquera.
