Yep, I bought my last from there.

 

They are cheap, tyres come from a European warehouse somewhere and they are a bastard to deal with when something goes wrong.!

 

You cannot speak direct to the warehouse and they admitted there was an internal language problem even they could not sort things out directly as there was only one person who was authorised to  speak English ? :dunno:

 

My tyre was stored wrongly and was miss-shapen, tyre fitter could not get it on the rim !

 

Personally , they are brilliant if things go right !

 

 

Worth a punt if your not in a hurry.

 

cheers, Ivan

Just used them and on the 5th business day, the tyre arrived as promised. Can't fault them on that one transaction and will definitely buy from them again.

I bought a set for my Guzzi 1000S from them round about December, good price and delivery was within a few days. I also tried calling to ask a question but kept going onto answer machine, otherwise I was happy with the purchase.

Cheers guys

 

ok, so I've ordered and paid with Paypal  and had order confirmation so sounds like i should be ok.

 

Forget review sites... just check on here for anything TDM, seems like somebody somewhere will have already been there, done that...
