is it cheaper to just find a shop to keep it at until next season?? | Most shops offer bike storage. Just drop off your bike. Call a week ahead at start of season and just bring insurance papers.

Yah, I get that, just saying for those tire deals, bayside just brings them up from the states. But people dont' really care when they are getting a deal.

$80 for install i think.
$330 just for both tires.
I was quoted at 2nd gear in poco both tires + install = $542.05
Saved myself the long drive + $100, plus Ben is great to talk to he is so passionate about bikes.

Post context was "Thats a killer deal for Canadian market!!!!"
My point is simply the tires are from the states, hence the lower price, compared to other local vendors who get tires from "Canadian Suppliers".

Bike just got winterized today and is in storage now. I was hoping the weather wouldn't change to shit so quick 
Btw if anybody is looking for a place to store their bike, mspeed performance offers it for $30/month and they'll put your battery on a tender.
