There's only one monty dealer in Australia. Steven Huxter from Adelaide; that's where me'n brad got our stuff from. www.monty.com.auHe has one stockist listed on his site for WA: Ward cycles - WA - 08 9275 0061 Don't know them though, but you could give them a call... Monty no longer makes 26" rear tires. All their rear wheels are 25" now. Huxter may still have some old 26" lying around though if you want to check that out. If you're going to order from him check with me'n brad first, just in case there's something we need as well so we can get it in bulk.

Just realised he's added a stock list to his site. It includes 2002 model 26" tires. Have a look.
I'm not all that impressed with the monty pads BTW. They're not that grippy... Nice and quiet if you're smooth, but especially if you're starting out I'd recommend spending the extra $3 for plazmatic pads so you don't hurt yourself.

hey Luke, ya shoulda seen me last Sunday in the rain. I found that water + tar residue + plaz pads + ceramic coated rim = OUCH2 Needless to say I spent a f'n long time grinding the ceramic off, and it's made a big difference. Once again I have faith in my brakes ;D. Seeyas on Sunday

If you want rear 26 tire's I recomend tioga or Michillin, like what Peiter runs.
