**** heads!

Bought a set from their ebay site (expensive i know, was in a rush), they forgot to send the washers. Called them up and tried to send the lot back, got rejected. Also mentioned they were known for this type of thing on a forum i use...guy told me 'that's pants mate, ya cant believe what you hear on them forums'.

They sent out the washers and i received them the following day.

Just tried to fit everything, rebuilt the calipers etc, almost finished and found the long banjo bolt had the wrong thread, so now i have to call the knobs and get the correct part sent out.

I wouldn't bother buying anything from these retards ever again.

yeah we had trouble when I got some lines for my k5. They sent lines to fit a curvy, then sent lines to fit a pointy but with the valve bit bent in the wrong direction, so it was nearly impossibly to fit them.

Yorkie chris being a god, managed to bend it the right way and make them work. Wouldn't use again cos it was a fart around for weeks on end. Still, managed to flog the curvy lines to dizzee since they never asked for them back

To be honest I can't complain. I received mine in time and am chuffed with the quality.
Sorry to hear you had problems though. Def not nice.
