Default Demon tweeks...anybody brought from um?

They're doing koni's pretty cheap at the mo, just wondered if anyone's had any bad experiences with um, or know where else is doing koni's at reasonable money at the mo?

For a 2wd saph btw.

Cheers, pete

I bought bucket seats and harnesses several years ago. Price of them was average in comparison to others at the time, although generally they are quite expensive as has been said. Decent service and no problems.

Certain items are well priced, used them for lots of stuff, good service.
I've just bought a set of wheels made to spec at a good price. Though they really wanted to shaft me on fitting a set of tyres to them

As above, some stuff is fairly priced, had some long delivery times before but I think it was down to having to source the goods from the manufacturer abroad.

They're probably cheap on some stuff as they buy a lot of stock so get good discount.

Only issues I ever had with DT was ordering some OMP bits that were out of stock, they took ages to deliver.

Can't think exactly what it was I did order that also took a long time to arrive, ever since then if they didn't have it in stock I'd try elsewhere.

Went to the shop in Wrexham to buy bucket seats (all the way from Lincs, long drive.. ) but they have them out to try on stands so if you're a fat fecker you don't buy a Corbeau seat that fits a racing snake!

Also when the catalogue drops through the door in January its full of things you want, but can't afford!

Well thay told me the same thing last year steve with my sparco harness and it did take just over 4 months from date of payment and date of having it.
Something about thay don't stock many of them and only order a few at a time and that the factory shuts for a month and then thay have a back order. iirc rsrick on focusowners.com had the same issue.

I've ordered years ago from them. They sometimes supply stuff that smaller companies can't always supply, the downside being that it's not from stock and takes forever! I'm waiting for something that was stupidly cheap in comparison to others from their cycle side, I didn't notice the note stating lead times though.

Just ordered some parts for the kart and it took ages for delivery due to sourcing parts which is understandable but 4 weeks or more for 2 small hose pipes and 3 mikalour clamps . Seems a tad lengthy imo.

Good service overall but have found other direct sources .

When I rang them they were very 'on the ball' and seemed trustworthy on parts knowledge.
