Im touring Russia and Russian roads ate my front tire much faster than I enticipated. Is there a place in Volgograd where I can buy new tire, any 90-90/21 tire will be OK.

Thanks

I have managed to find front tire in
Rust Moto shop
Руст Байк
ул. Электролесовская, д. 72
8 917 335 97 77

They don't have wide selection of tires, but standard dimension linke 90-90/21 is not a problem to find. They can't change tires, so I had to go to
