I recently bought new tires and decided to let a shop install and balance them. I removed the wheels and took them in. After they were installed and put back on the bike (by myself), I rode around 20 miles total between a few trips.
I rode into my garage yesterday and noticed something on the ground... the weights they had "secured" onto the rear wheel. Today I found the other set laying on the ground right next to my bike... arrrghghh! Doesn't look like there's a good place to mount the flat ones, but shouldnt' they know how to do it properly?
Do I need to get the rear wheel re-balanced? The two sets were both made up of four 0.5 oz square sticky weights, both mounted to the left and right side of my rear wheel. I have no idea where they are supposed to go. No signs of sticky or left-over residue. Do I just ride and see if I notice anything?
Also, what do I do about the shop? Do I call them and ask them to re-balance the wheel? Do I just ride my bike up there and tell them to take it off and re-install on the bike too, or just bring them the wheel and do the rest. I'd like to handle it politely, but I also want to know what you'd do. Thanks for the support!
