My purist 2

Post by Bobthefloat »

Just got my purist 2 back from Gary mills
The grub screw had been damaged and had to be drilled out and replaced. Also he put new bearings in it and gave it a full service ect and posted back special delivery all for £26 I've just got off the phone to him to say thanks what a lovely chap he is :Thumb:

Well done mate, that is very cheap, quality ball races are not cheap, he must buy them in bulk? :Hat:

I bought a lineguard for my Trudex from him. I need to replace the check lever as the top has snapped off. I rung him and he said he would replace the lever , service it and reverse the check for left hand wind for £27.50. He then said he would deduct £11 as I had bought a lineguard. A really nice guy.

Thoroughly decent chap is Gary.
