Where to buy tyres?
 

Anyone purchased tyres in Uzbekistan/Tajikstan?

I'll be coming from Europe on a 650 Transalp through Turkey and Iran. The bike currently has Metz Tourance front and back and I'm thinking of changing to Mitas E-07's or similar before hitting the Pamir Hwy and going onto Mongolia.

Would I be better off buying in Europe and carrying them with me (I'd really rather not) or is there an option to buy in Samarkand/Dushanbe?

Thanks, Tom.

Tires
 

Hi Tom. I have not heard of tires in Dushanbe. We do have some tires (SHINKO E700) in Osh, Kyrgyzstan, this may help you to travel light.

Hi Patrik,

Thanks for the info, unfortunately we will be starting the Pamir Hwy from Dushanbe heading toward Osh so I need to get the tires before then.

I will definitely look you up in Osh though maybe for repairs/service?

Hi Patrik
Saw your comment to Daze bout tyres in OSH. I've got same issue but coming from Kaz on KLR 650 ... Will need tyres about OSH inLate June. 21 and 17
Cam you help me or know where I can buy a set?

Hi Daze. I do have a contact in Dushanbe. I can try to send him a set of tires if you want.
On what date will you pass Dushanbe?

Thanks to the fantastic efforts of Patrik from Muztoo I now have a brand new set of Shinko E700's waiting in Dushanbe.

Thanks Patrik!
