Where does everyone buy their tyres these days?

Used to get from CRC, but see their prices are away up compared to last year. Any recommendations now?

acycles often work out cheapest for me (although the days of £3X Maxxis EXO seem to be gone)

Alltricks, ACycles in France or several in Germany seem to be the cheapest around (depending on what brand).

Failing that nextdaytyres are good.

German sites, bike-components, bike-discount, bike24, etc

I've noticed with bike-components that one or two tyres are marked as "No delivery to UK". Rather annoying when everywhere in the UK is out of stock.

After one of the other "what tyre" threads I had a look round, this was for fat bike tyres, and prices seem to have gone up by about 15% in the last year or so. Could be supply and demand or fluctuation in exchange rates at the time of purchase by the importer.

I needed to buy a couple of tyres last week - purchasing them from the brand's own site (Trek/Bontrager) was exactly the same price as I've been able to get them from the usual resellers.

Wiggle? - "Wiggle Price Promise: our commitment to never be beaten on price."

Here's who they price match -  http://www.wiggle.co.uk/h/option/productpricing

Bike Tart also worth a look - 5% discount code if you pretend to leave the site 🙂
