Does anyone know how I go about getting a new tyre for my MB please? I pumped the tyres up last night and woke up this morning to find a very flat tyre!
I have tried the MB website which refers you to P&T but then on the P&T website there are no options to contact them other than a fax number 
TIA ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Hi Peachy,
I had the same prob. Went into the baby factory (that's where I bought the buggy from) and they organised a new one for me. Maybe you can do the same? Just any shop that sells them? And, oh joy, you'll probably get one made in china as that's where all mountain buggy stuff is made now............

If you can inflate the tyres can you not buy a puncture repair kit and repair the hole yourself like you would with bikes? Or get the bike shop to do it?
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I don't have a MB but my buggy has inflatable tyres too and that's what we'd do. -------------

Most cycle shops should sell something also.
Alternatively, there is http://www.wobble.co.nz/catalog/product/1083-mountain-buggy-pneumatic-tyre.html - Wobble . I got my MB storm and sun covers from there and they are fantastic - got them the next day even!! |

Thanks for your replies ladies.
I did think about going to a cycle shop but it actually looks like the side walls are perished on it. I am pretty sure I am actually going to have to replace all 3 tyres
I will pop into the local bike shop and see what they say otherwise I will try through one of the retailers. My MB gets an absolute pounding, it comes with me on all my runs and does in excess of 10-15kms most days!!! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

When our MB tube got a puncture we went to the bike shop and brought a new tube very cheap too ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Your local bike shop should be able to sort out some new tires and innertubes for you I would think. ------------- Lisa mummy to Ryan http://www.alterna-tickers.com">

Yay! Local bike repair show replaced the inner tube and sorted everything out for me for $10!
Here I was thinking it was going to cost me a small fortune
Thanks for your help ladies! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

| Ooh wow just googled for my flat MB tyre and this came up - stoked I will be able to get it sorted so cheap. Tried to pump it up at the gas station but it was a no go so I hope it's a cheap n easy fix for me too :) |
