Tyres in Laos?

[Franconian]

Hi folks,

I am currently in Chiang Mai and cross over to Laos in about 1 week. My rear tyre needs to be replaced soon. Can I get one easily in Laos or should I replace it in Chiang Mai?
If in Chiang Mai, where? I only need it to last for about 5K as I want to get a new set when leaving Thailand. So it can be a cheap Chinese one or even used.

130/80/17 or 120/90/17

Cheers,
Frank

Hi Jerome,

I just picked up a Thai made road tyre in Chiang Mai. Are there any big bike shops in Luang Prabang or Vientiane?
