I’m currently traveling around Japan and have had what sounds like a minor vehicle breakdown, a flat tire. Not just any flat tire but on a tire designed to run when flat! I need to find a shop that carries 9.5 inch tires or perhaps just replacement stems. I’m discovering more barriers to getting a replacement than any single town could put on the street! Surely there are repair-shops for at least wheel chairs, but where? And since scooters are still the lesser known, do they even exist? And where?
With all the contingencies we planned for needing to replace a tire did not cross our minds because of the run flat feature of the tire. And I never expected that a vendor would refuse to ship outside their country! Suddenly a simple flat tire has become not so simple because I suddenly am without my mobility.
If anyone can can help me with a Tokyo contact address or company name? Or even a rental company?
