Big Watty Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Just a note to say thanks to simonr - I bought a disc brake sconversion for the 110 from him at Eastnor and fitted it this weekend- the instuctions were clear and eay to follow - I have the advantage of using a workshop a with a lift which made access easier - only took just over an hour and thats by someone who barely knows one end of a spanner from the other - but I can read instuctions What's more it works much better than the old drum brake!! PS I don't work for, or know Simon, just a satisfied customer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Henson Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The series ones have been available for a short while now Richard. You do realise that you have to get your wallet out (that'll be a first) Fight off the mass of moths, bats, long lost friends, ex wives, etc Hand over what to you would seem like a Kings ransom Then (after considering suicide after spending money), read instructions. Do the job. Justify the expense to your poor, long-suffering wife. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonr Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 The series ones have been available for a short while now Richard. Do you know something I don't Les? I hope to have a small number available at Billing this year (no promises though!). Things are a bit hectic at the moment with the launch of the mystery object (featured in TOR this month), the X-Lite and X-Cap. It's stretching my project management abilities! I'll do my best though! Cheers for the feedback Chris. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeds Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Have bought some stuff of Simon. Had a few questions and Simon responded quickly! Generally am very happy with the goods. I had one minor comment to make about the goods. Emailed Simon and he agreed said it had been mentioned before and was working on it. He seemed to genuinely happy to receieve feedback Yep X-eng does good stuff and has good customer relationships. Good luck to Si and X Eng regards Leeds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
