They are 5 mins from my place. Most of their business seems to be specialized stuff. I have found them to not always be the cheapest, but they carry teh stuff that others dont. I have bought a tool from them and explained what I was using it for. It was too big for what I was using it for and they gave me a full refund. That alone scores big points in my book!!! As most will only give a credit note etc. They are more so into car and truck stuff but carry some bike gear. If they dont have it they can get it. They also dont carry lottsa rubbish stuff, more so the brands that are harder to find like stalhwillie etc. They have been in business for a long time and much of their business seems to eb by word of mouth, as they dont have big main street signage. Just my experiences anyhow. (didnt know they were online until now, thx Smitty)

Cheers

must have been the gold plated one Strika

I did see that they also do a Workshop chain toolkit
which allows you to do timing chain primary chain and drive chain
...one for the bike shops I guess
