Hello all,
Looking at picking up a new front tyre. Wheel is not currently on the Bike.
Anyone recommend removing existing tyre/fitting a new one myself? Is there an easy way to do this?
Or it's too difficult a job without proper tools and taking it to a bike mechanic/garage is preferred?
A consideration, this is a replacement (2nd hand) Wheel that I've picked up, however not used before.
Perhaps it's safer to get a garage to do it so they can check this wheel over, plus ensure its properly balanced.
