I am now ready to put some new tyres on my NC30 wheels. Is this something i can do without tyre fitting tools. I just dont trust the Monkeys down the road at ATS to do them, as the wheels have been freshly powercoated!!

I've got some proper tyre levers and it is a right ballache fitting tyres!
You'll also need a compressor to pop the bead onto the rim.
Take them to a bike shop rather than a car garage - you might get some bike related sympathy there!

talk to the fitter directly and wave a sterling note in front of them hinting heavily that they get it if they take extra care. works for me

If you do take them somewhere, make sure they balance the single sider - not all places have the right spindles to balance the rear wheel (they won't tell you that though!).
