Hi Ian(seem to writing a lot to you these days hahaha), I went to Toni Togo for chain sprocket and got an 18” Michelin desert. Toni’s can be slow replying to emails so might be better calling them, not sure if they’ll have 17” and also said to them if they stocked 17&18 they would sell! Toni and his mechanics were off on the Dakar when I was there and I know they were ordering more stock in from Europe when he got back. Might be a mission getting them to send tyres to Abuja, it’s a long way and things in Africa are now always easy as you think.
I had my battery fail on the way to Abuja, local in Abuja said he could get me a good battery but he gave me a cheap Chinese thing (never got my money back in the end), DHL was 132GBP for 3.2kg and took two days!! DHL is your friend and doesn’t waste your time.
Don’t fancy carrying a bit of rubber behind you then????
