Karimura Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Hi ladies and gents.Just getting some replacements for my bike before setting it on the road,And I got quoted 90 pound for new tyres for a cg 125 2006 model, but on websites they are like 30 quid, could someone help direct a good place or good website for good deals where i wont get ripped off?Also I'm trying to find um disc brake or drum brakes for my rear tyre before putting tyre on again, but cannot find a website, demontweeks dont do 125's. My uncle said look in halfords at around 9 quid? Cheers for the help guys... Hope someone has the godly answers I seek ^^ Quote

Tango Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Does your bike have Drum or Disk brakes? You'll need pads for a disk or shoes for a drum. Wemoto probably as good a place as any....and I think they have a help line too. Failing that....fleaBay may have someone doing what you are looking for. Quote
MrBlonde71 Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I had a 2005 cg 125 (ES4) and changed the tyres to Michelin pilot sporty, i found them to perform better than the old pirelli,I bought them from M and P .com and removed the wheels and took them to my local motorbike shop and asked them to fit the tyres to the wheels (I think they charged me a tenner).I bought new pads for the front disc from a seller on ebay, but never needed to change the rears shoes in the drum (the bike had done 16000 when i sold it).

mealexme Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 the reason for the price difference could simply be they are different tyres. don't always go for the cheapest, especially buying online they may be cheap knock offs that look like better brands but don't act like them in the corners or in the wet.also the £90 may also include fitting Quote
