Hi all, I'm a relatively new member here and recently purchased a Scott CR1 team via a friend who knows the Japan distributor.
I apologize if this has been discussed before.This was a demo bike used quite a bit, so I wanted to have new tires put on the bike, so I took the rims to the closest shop, Cycle Shop Seo in Harumi. I had some tires that I purchased in the US, and they told me that they only work on bikes purchased at that shop, even though I was ready to pay for the service... Is this common at cycling shops in Japan? If so, I'm worried about getting service for the cycle I purchased directly from the Scott distributor in Japan...
Thanks,
AK
