KC People: Is Cyclops still around?
« on: May 22, 2013, 09:16:54 AM »
Like the title says, I called Jim to see if he had or could order an Avon Roadrider rear for the K3 and got a 'this number has been disconnected'.
Anbody in the KC area know if he went out of business? Amber? Anybody?

Well, talked to one of the local shops and they confirmed he closed up shop.
Bummer, he had a decent tire selection.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier Dukie - Yeah Jim closed his doors.  He's still truing wheels in his basement, but pretty much sold everything else.

That sucks. I liked his setup and selection of tires and humor.
Any other places you guys like in KC that will do a good job at tire mounting and dynamic balancing at a reasonable price?
