I'm going to run it. Can't get a hold of Will, though I'm sure he's a bit busy right now. No one else around here can straighten rotors. I'm just going to run it until I get a hold of Will. Rather pissed at the fact that with just this tire change, i'll spend more than it would to buy that HF tire changer. My guy back home was awesome. While $40 is still a bit much for some people, you would give him an hour heads up, ride down, he would drop whatever he was doing, and 10 minutes later you'd have fresh rubber.
If my dad wasn't tempting me for a ride this weekend, I'd just wait for that tire changer to come in and be done with it.
Next time you need tires, plan to ride to my place. Ship the tires here, and enjoy the last life of your old tires on the way out. I have the HF changer, and I also have a local guy that charges $10/wheel to mount(no balance). I balance at home, then put the wheels back on the bike. Then you have 4.5 hours to scuff them in...
