I need some help from someone who has a front stand and knowledge of how to dismount and mount a tire ( not the rubber itself, just the whole wheel itself off and on the bike).
Just had new tires installed and the front tire was put on going the wrong direction on the bike.
I'm located in Newburyport, willing to travel around 30 miles.

The tire was put on backwards or the wheel was put on backwards? If it's the tire, ask whoever mounted it to do the whole job of taking it off,swapping the tire and remounting the wheel. You can ride it like that to get it to the tire guy if it's just the tire on backwards.

The tire was mounted to the wheel correctly. The wheel was just put onto the bike backwards ( arrows pointing in the wrong direction)
It's a 2 hour round trip where I got the tire change so I'm trying to see if I can go to a place more local, as this shouldn't take more than 10 minutes to do.
