tires, Careterra Austral, Chile
 

Anyone any ideas on getting a front (Karoo pref) for my R100GS anywhere like Tucumon (sp) or similar. Have a badly warn and damaged tire I´d like to replace ASAP. Heard of ServTren, but anyone else before Santiago ? Cheers, Fritz

Yepp, in Temuco on the same road as Servitren (Avenida Caupolican), just a couple of blocks southwest, opposite the Shell service station, there's a good motorcycle tyre shop, I just got my Pirelli MT60 there. Don't know if they have anything else. If you don't find it ask at SErvitren - Edgardo recommended that place to me.

Cheers Winnie. My tyre gave up on me and I had to get a MX one in Coyhaique (excuse spelling), which then failes 100kms up road :-(
Luckily kept old TCK and that back on again
Anyone interested, if I find shops, (location of town or area in page title)I put them on the blog here :-

Currently in Puerto Montt looking for aluminium pannier repairs...and still that elusive tyre...Tucuman if not. Many thanks, Fritz
(PS Winnie were you on this actual PC, all the HU shortcuts to your posts are on this PC right here in PM nearish hostels....spooky :-0 eh)
