The guy from Cavalry is amazing, he has sorted my black SV out twice now in Fitzroy Street and Mr. Toad is right.....that bike is a sight to behold! Top bloke! I still have the 3 inch screw he pulled out of my rear tyre!

touch wood, I haven't had to use him with the SV

He manages to get all the kit needed for fitting and balancing tyres + a pretty big air cylinder onto the back of his bike

The Cavalry man (jim was it??) is absolutely the best thing on 2 wheels.

When he arrived at my house some time ago i was truly gobsmake by his bike.

Then he started taking out the tools

Very nice guy too and glad others here feel as positive about him as i do.

he even had a go at bleeding my back brake while he was at it cos when i got the back ouncture i also managed to undo the back banjo and squirt barke fluid all ove the back wheel and tyre.

Thanks for the recommendations, 100% happy
