It’s been on a bike trainer in a room, so the back tyre has been off the floor (suspended over the magnetic flywheel. The front however obviously has a flat spot,as that had the weight on it.
If i bring in my own tyre will those shops install it for me?

You can change it/them yourselves. Google it for help.

Take off the tyres and clean them and the rims. Seat them then pass a sponge with soapy water around it and pump. See it that works firstdredman1 wrote:De Dragon wrote:dredman1 wrote:They’re tubeless - the original tyres that came on a Trek 4300. (Bontrager Connection Trail)

Ok i thought I remember seeing the need for some specialty equipment to pull the tyre off - but realise i just need a cheap tyre lever. Doesnt look too hard.
Going to call around in a bit and check the tyre prices locally. Wondering if I should even just use tubes instead of buying new tyres altogether.

MTB tyres don't even need those if your hands a little tough.
