It's a visual "grunt" of approval. Saves grumbling about lack of interest... :wink:

Am I the only one who thinks a custom part for less than £40 posted is cheap?!

Help all ye who think the new Leo centre caps will be coming with the cornflakes :?

I send out parts with significantly less complicated weekly for work and none are that cheap.

Yes, it's £40. But you try making one for less.

Just digging this up as I've just fitted one of their Smiths cables.

Rating: 4/5

I've spent quite a bit time swearing at the wheel end of things. Update with some (perhaps lousy) pics within the next few days. Need some grub now.

Hurumph! sm2

Same problems as John with the square end with the wrong size/shape?

Not quite. The square is perfectly square. It'll slide half way down the outer end of the drive tube, but not the inner half. There's only a bawhair in it, but it did mean fishing out the Dremel to just take a 1/4 of a bawhair off each side, to make it slide all the way through from the tight side. If the square hole in the drive tube was finished perfectly end-to-end, then I wouldn't of had the issue and it would have been a perfect sliding fit.
