We know how difficult it is finding good suppliers sometimes, and it’s not always the big companies that are easy to find that are the best to deal with. Here you will find suppliers that have given us particularly good service. Now, we appreciate that service is an individual thing, and different people have different opinions, so this is just our opinion. For legal reasons, we won’t be doing a “Bad Suppliers” section as we don’t want to get in trouble with anyone. Please note, we are not saying these are the cheapest companies, just the ones that have been great to deal with.
Just to note, this is our opinion, and we have no link and get no inducement from any of these companies (unless we expressly state otherwise!)
www.chaoscustom.co.uk is a company we have used for a few years to reshape and reupholster seats. Reasonable price and great workmanship means it is a great option to treat your posterior for long days in the saddle. Always an easy process and they are very willing to discuss your exact requirements with you. It’s also nice to have something bespoke in a world full of aftermarket catalogue add ons.
raceleathers.co.uk We found these guys when needing to get a pair of well loved Daytona boots off to be resoled. Not that local to us but were the only helpful people we spoke to when trying to get it done. Great service throughout. Then we visited their treasure trove of a shop that stocks a wide range they probably have something for everyone. Plus, when you go in, they are always good guys happy to have a chat.
www.sporttravelsolutions.net are a company we have been using for about 10 years to book our ferries. It’s not always easy to book multiple bikes onto a ferry or to get the right cabin, but an email to these guys always gets us sorted. Particularly useful when trying to book cabins on long overnight ferries were the ferries websites are not always the easiest to navigate.
We have used them for multiple ferry companies and they always do their best to beat the crossing prices you can get on your own.

These are not the most local company to us, but we make the extra effort to use them because of the quality of work.
Always willing to discuss your requirements, and with a wide range of clothing and services (printing and other services available), if you have a brand you want to promote, these are the guys.
Also, unlike a lot of other places we tried, if they tell you a deadline, it’s ready for you. A very reliable bunch.
Add to that, all the staff are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, we can’t recommend them enough.
