Couldn't download the link for some reason.

T + L look good and I note the good reviews. Slight prob is they are in Bedford and I'm up near Glasgow.

:D
I post all my hard stuff, all marques, to Beds from France. I reckon it's worth it, especially for these cranks. (They'll also probably supply shells to suit, having ground no further than necessary.)
The only crank I ever broke had had its radius taken out by people who weren't as smart as they should have been . . . so I play super-safe these days.
I'm sure there are very good folk up near you, but I'd ask around among twin owners in your neck of the woods before entrusting anything precious to anyone!

Good points. The nearest reliably recommended precision engineers are in Dundee. Prob 2.5 hours away. I might check courier costs. Crankshafts are heavy of course!

Hello William,
I agree with Bill Brown. T&L were kind and helpfull for me. Crank and rods check and grinding, static and dynamic balancing et c. They have a good experience of our twin engines.

Hi, recommend T&L to. Very knowledgeable on our engines. I live in Wales so I sent my by crank by courier and all work completed as it should be and then couriered back to me. They are very helpful and happy to give advice. I would recommend you give them a ring. LynP
